Conference History:

The Faculty of Science at the University of Regina, in partnership with First Nations University of Canada and File Hills Qu’Appelle Tribal Council, is honoured to host the 2024 Turtle Island Indigenous Science Conference. This conference follows the very successful inaugural Turtle Island Indigenous Science Conference held at the University of Manitoba in 2022.

We hope to see you in Regina, as we embark on this transformative journey.
