Indigenous Leadership Circle
First Nations, Inuit and Métis members promote cultural safety in the union and the workplace while working to dismantle the harmful effects of colonization and Indigenous-specific racism.
The Indigenous Leadership Circle offers a welcoming space for all Indigenous members.
The Circle meets twice a year, bringing together one representative from each BCNU region. For more information on the roles and responsibilities of a caucus regional representative, please click here. The Circle also sends voting delegates to the annual BCNU Convention.
