Indigenous & Muslim Women’s Matinamakēw Circle

This collaborative event is hosted by Sisters Dialogue and Mâmawi Nīpawiwin (Standing Together), and funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage.

Join us for the Indigenous & Muslim Women’s Matinamakēw Circle welcoming space dedicated to connection, dialogue, reflection, and community. Matinamakēw (ᒫᑎᓇᒫᑫᐤ) in Cree means s/he distributes things; s/he shares with everyone.

This gathering brings Indigenous and Muslim women together to build solidarity, share lived experiences, learn from one another and honor our shared values of community, storytelling, and mutual respect.
