The One Society Network (OSN) respectfully acknowledges that our members work and live on the traditional territories of the Cree, Blackfoot, Nakoda Sioux, Oji-Cree, Dene, Algonquin people, Haudenosaunee (Iroquois), Anishinaabe (Ojibway/Saulteaux) nations and Dakota peoples, as well as lands that are now known as part of Treaties 1, 6, 7, and 8 and the homeland of the Métis Nation.

We also acknowledge that members work and live on the original lands of the Coast Salish, səl̓ilw̓ətaʔɬ (Tsleil Waututh), kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (Kwikwetlem), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish), xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), lək̓ʷəŋən (Le-KWUNG-en), Songhees (song-geez), Esquimalt and W̱SÁNEĆ (wh-say-nech) peoples, whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.

Our Network is committed to giving voice to Indigenous peoples to inform the design, implementation, and dissemination of OSN’s research. We are mindful of the ongoing and enduring effects of systemic racism and are dedicated to creating safe and inclusive spaces to strengthen collaboration and engender change.

We accept the responsibility of incorporating Indigenous perspectives in our work, as well as building respectful relationships with Indigenous communities through our research.
