Indigenization at OC
Our Indigenous Strategic Framework embodies Indigenous principles, ways of being and ways of knowing. Our Four Millars Model, representing the Q’wc’i?, C7iskten (Pit House), reflects the strength of many coming together as one, with ºÚÁÏרÇø serving as a house of learning.
ºÚÁÏרÇø respectfully acknowledges that the Penticton, Kelowna and Vernon campuses are located on the lands of the Syilx Okanagan People and the Salmon Arm campus is located on the lands of the Secwépemc People. We honour our relations and hold up their knowledge, welcoming all to our house of learning.
