Indigenous Cultural Awareness Training for Live Music
The Canadian Live Music Association (CLMA) has partnered with NVision Insight Group to offer The Path: Your Journey through Indigenous Canada, an Indigenous cultural awareness training program, for the live music industry. Designed by NVision, this certificate course meets various Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Calls to Action for Canadians to receive cultural competency training by teaching about “the history and legacy of residential schools, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Treaties and Aboriginal rights, Indigenous law, and Aboriginal– Crown relations.” This training is for anyone committed to creating a stronger Canada, a more compassionate Canada, and a Canada of empowered Indigenous communities.
Request for Proposals: Closing the Gap
The purpose of this Request for Proposals (RFP) is to identify a contractor to conduct a national research project on the impact and representation of Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour (BIPOC) live music workers in Canada. The contractor will be required to work in collaboration with the CLMA and its partners, advisory council, and additional consultants retained by the association (see Section 3) to provide a high level of service in a cost-effective manner.
