The IC was created in 2002 as a mandated body for universities that accept Indigenous funding. The IC has representatives from urban, First Nations, Métis organizations and communities and Indigenous faculty from the University. The IC is well positioned to provide guidance to the University in implementing Indigenous programming and curricula, and in hiring Indigenous faculty. The IC can play a pivotal role in helping to advance the University’s reconciliation and Indigeneity agenda; however, to do so, it should be included in the university’s governing bodies, such as the Board of Governors and the University Senate.
