What is Gathering Grounds?
Gathering Grounds is Seven Directions’ Indigenous Community of Practice that brings together community members on a shared interest or set of challenges. These community meetings provide members an opportunity to learn from each other and presenters, deepen their knowledge on topics relevant to their community, connect with others, and generate ideas to address the challenges their communities are facing through lively discussion.
