About The Event Organizer
The National Urban Indigenous Coalition Council – or NUICC – is an advisory table made up of caucus representatives of Urban Indigenous Coalitions from nearly every province and territory in Canada. NUICC was established in 2019 to engage urban Indigenous organisations, share their unique stories, raise the profile of local perspectives and issues, and to further advance a national dialogue. Trends as reported by StatCan point to growing numbers of Indigenous people in Canada living in urban centres, with estimates of approximately 1,000,000 living off reserve today. Approximately one-quarter of Indigenous people living in urban areas in Canada are living in poverty. Urban organisations which provide support are therefore vital to the overall health of Indigenous Peoples, and to Canadian society.
