Indigenization Strategy for Aboriginal Adult Literacy

 In the Spirit of Sharing:  Supporting Aboriginal Adult Literacy

_______________________________________

The Nicola Valley Institute of Technology is excited to introduce the “Indigenization Strategy for Aboriginal Adult Literacy”.  This initiative was funded by the Ministry of Advanced Education to administer the coordination of an Aboriginal literacy initiative and the indigenization framework development. 

On this webpage we present to you all of the findings and materials developed from this initiative.  We hope this will assist literacy practitioners in providing the resources and tools necessary to help increase the success of Aboriginal learners in BC. 

The involvement of literacy practitioners and resource people was crucial for this initiative.  NVIT would like to respectfully acknowledge and thank anyone who had any input, suggestions, thoughts, ideas and participation
