The Canada-Indigenous Relations group is a space for sharing stories, discussing definitions, and highlighting educational opportunities to learn more about Indigenous governance and policy, as well as nation-to-nation relationships. More recently, as part of the 2018 Innovation Fair, there was a live digital brainstorming session on GCcollab on Indigenous approaches to policy and evaluation, an Indigenous GBA+ lens, and digital transformation in the way that federal departments and agencies use online platforms to work for and with Indigenous peoples. The brainstorming sought to collect as many considerations and solutions as possible to employ a decolonizing strategy for conducting research and co-creating knowledge.
