“The illiterate of the future are not those who can’t read or write but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn.” Alvin Toffler "Learn, unlearn, and relearn" is a continuous process of acquiring new knowledge and skills (learn), discarding outdated or incorrect information and habits (unlearn), and then updating or replacing it with more accurate or relevant knowledge (relearn).
It has been 10 years since the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report including the 94 Calls to Action was released to the Canadian public. We as Canadians learned much about our shared history, some of this information we questioned, it was hard for us to believe. These 94 Calls to Action described in the report are a blueprint to Reconciliation.
The process of learning, unlearning, and relearning is crucial for Truth and Reconciliation. It involves acknowledging the past, understanding its impact, and being open to new perspectives. This journey requires us to unlearn harmful stereotypes and misconceptions that have been ingrained over time. Relearning involves embracing the true history and stories of Indigenous peoples, fostering a deeper understanding and respect. By engaging in this process, we can build stronger, more respectful relationships and work towards genuine reconciliation.
In this conversation, stories will be shared that illustrate how the process of learning, unlearning and relearning is important to building healthy and inclusive communities.
