Résumé

Au cours des dernières décennies, l’éducation Onkwehón:we (autochtone) est un domaine d’études et de pratique qui a connu un essor important dans les écoles primaires, secondaires et postsecondaires au Canada. Les conclusions de la Commission de vérité et de réconciliation du Canada ainsi que ses 94 appels à l’action s’avèrent l’une des contributions les plus déterminantes à cette croissance au cours des dernières années. Au cœur du processus de réconciliation se trouve la compréhension des expériences des Onkwehón:we et de leurs perceptions dans différents domaines. Puisque la spiritualité et les cérémonies qui y sont associées sont importantes pour de nombreuses communautés Onkwehón:we, et que certaines écoles et universités s’y intéressent, leur inclusion dans des programmes scolaires et non scolaires mérite d’être examinée. Cet essai explore l’importance de la spiritualité Onkwehón:we, son rôle dans le processus de réconciliation et l’intérêt de permettre aux écoles de collaborer avec les peuples autochtones pour faciliter cet apprentissage.
