Each year on September 30, people across Canada wear orange and participate in Orange Shirt Day to recognize and raise awareness about the history and legacies of the residential school system in Canada. A reminder that UBC will observe this day — the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation — as a statutory day on both campuses.
If you are looking for opportunities to take part in events on The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, consider joining UBC Applied Science and Land and Food Systems for an Intergenerational March to Commemorate Orange Shirt Day. All are welcome and registration is not required. The event starts at 11:45 am at the Indian Residential School History and Dialogue Centre.
