Community and BU events planned for Truth and Reconciliation Week

Brandon University News - September 25, 2025

Brandon University (BU) is partnering with the community for a week of activities, both on-campus and off, to mark Truth and Reconciliation Week in Brandon.

Tuesday, Sept. 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day. We take this time to reflect on our past and the harm done by Canada’s residential school system, as well as to learn about Indigenous history and culture. This is also an occasion to look forward and to reaffirm our commitment to reconciliation.

Brandon University’s activities support community-wide events organized by our partners in the Brandon Urban Aboriginal Peoples’ Council (BUAPC) and reflect our ongoing efforts to welcome Indigenous knowledge and worldviews into our perspective.
