    Educational Resources for Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Indigenization

    At Laurier, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) and Indigenization and decolonization are part of our core values as a learning institution. To help further the knowledge and skills of our community of educators within the Faculty of Education, the Faculty’s EDI and Indigenization Coalition has prepared this collection of resources.

    This collection draws on a range of English and French digital sources and includes information tools suitable for educator self-growth and resources for teaching in K-12 classrooms. This catalogue is not exhaustive. It is a living collection that is monitored and updated over time by resource people with knowledge and expertise in teaching and learning about EDI and Indigenization. Current Laurier BEd student Jessica Pacheco will be acting as curator for the 2024/25 academic year, supported by Dr. Avis Beek of the Faculty of Education.

    If you would like to contribute to the collection or have any comments or suggestions, please contact the Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Indigenization Coalition through Dr. Avis Beek at abeek@wlu.ca. For more information about the Faculty of Education's EDI & I Coalition, follow us on Instagram @LaurierEdu_EDII.
