- One of ten short stories of PWRDF and partner projects.
- "With the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's 94 Calls to Action, PWRDF has deepened its ties with Indigenous Canadians. We have partnered with First Nations organizations on language and curriculum development as well as microfinance initiatives. In supporting the retrofit of homes with clean water in Pikangikum, Ontario, Anglicans fundraised, organized water walks and learned about the sacredness of this basic right that so many of us take for granted. A new Indigenous Midwives program is sharing the efficacy of Indigenous midwifery in Canada with parteras in Peru and Mexico, enabling a partner statement at the UN. With our Mapping the Ground We Stand On workshop, Anglicans are learning about the colonization of Canada from an Indigenous perspective". [Text of entire article.]
