Sxwpilemaát Siyám (Chief Leanne Joe) a Hereditary Chief of the Squamish Nation and Transformative Storyteller and co-author Lily Raphael are sharing a path for economic reconciliation with the launch of Step Into the River: A Framework for Economic Reconciliation.
Economic Reconciliation is more than just normalizing relations with First Nations, it's about transforming the economy for all of our collective wellbeing, transforming our collective economy from the current state to a desired future state.
The Step into the River Framework offers a set of values, mind shifts, and practices to support how practitioners, local governments, organizations, institutions, and industry partners can engage in reconciliation to meet that desired outcome.
