Over the past four years, we've had an artist from Drawing Change visually represent the key takeaways from our conferences. This graphic was produced during the keynote "Land and Economic Reconciliation: Leading Indigenous Perspectives on Development," with Karen Restoule, Kimberly Murray, and Chief Willie Sellars. Here are some of the key takeaways illustrated in the graphic: 1️⃣ Survivor Recognition: Honouring survivors is a key step toward reconciliation. 2️⃣ Truth Unveiling: Indigenous families have the right to know the truth about unmarked graves. 3️⃣ Balancing Act: Strive to balance stewardship and economic opportunities for sustainable development. 4️⃣ Progress in Unity: Celebrate progress and engagement; uplift and learn from one another. 5️⃣ Empowering Communities: Prioritize better education in Indigenous communities. 6️⃣ Cultural Exchange: Increase pow-wow attendance for cultural exchange and understanding.

CLD in Scotland Conference 17 April 2024 I have had time to reflect on the CLD in Scotland Conference which was a great success. The key points for me from the conference, in no particular order are: - The role of the CLD family in unlocking the potential for individuals and communities - The importance of professional qualifications/qualified practitioners to support learners, communities and volunteers - Learning is an integral part of Community Development - That collaboration and cohesion across the CLD family is essential to maximise the impact of the Sector for learners and communities - CLD leaders require to articulate the Sector is contributing, and will contribute in the future, to creating the Scotland we want. - The SCQF provides a nationally recognised means of linking CLD to other actors in the Lifelong Learning system to the benefit of individuals and communities - The importance of evidence to demonstrate the positive impact of CLD activities is vital and requires to be developed systemically - Social justice is central to all CLD practice - We need to define but not confine the role of the CLD family. - There requires to be greater recognition of the key role played by the CLD Sector in addressing socio-economic inequality These are my views and not those the CLDSC or CLDMS and sure all colleagues who attended on the day left with their own key points. The sign of a successful conference I think!
