Description

The Shire Highlands Sustainable Livelihoods Programme has set out to modify its work to ensure that the most vulnerable in communities are not left out of development processes. It highlights the need to place HIV/AIDS and its effects at the centre of the development program to minimize its impact on people at the community level. It shares experiences of mainstreaming through interviews and shows the spin-offs of increased community mobilisation, and raises key issues for planners and policy makers.

St. Francis Xavier University and Coady Institute stand on the lands of Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded home of the Mi’kmaw. We express our deep gratitude and appreciation to the generations of Mi’kmaw who, since time immemorial, have loved and stewarded these lands and the beings who call them home. Colonization is not just history; it exists in the present tense. While we strive to decolonize ourselves and our University, we know there is still much for us to learn.

We are committed to doing the hard work of self-reflection and to repairing relationships with the Mi’kmaw on whose lands we reside, including embracing the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada Calls to Action and embodying their spirit in our plans to move forward with our University.
