Acknowledgement of Indigenous Lands and Territories

We respectfully acknowledge that the Capacity Research Unit at the University of British Columbia is situated in the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam). We also acknowledge that we conduct and facilitate research activities in the shared traditional territories of the Musqueam, Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh), and in the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Syilx Okanagan Nation and their peoples.

Capacity Research Unit engages with a diverse network of partners and organizations across Turtle Island, and we acknowledge and thank the traditional owners and caretakers of the lands upon which we carry out our collaborations and shared work.  We are grateful to the Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island for the opportunity to form and strengthen research partnerships across the lands they have cared for since time immemorial.
