Scenario

When communities are divided about engaging with official reconciliation processes

Our Indigenous community is split on whether to engage with the government's truth and reconciliation process because some elders see it as another form of colonization while younger members think it's our only chance to be heard. The division is tearing apart families and our community leadership doesn't know how to proceed.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A community faces internal conflict over whether participating in external truth-telling processes serves or betrays their collective interests.
