Her learning has included SENĆOŦEN language, W̱SÁNEĆ plant relatives, and environmental restoration through various training experiences. This workshop will incorporate these learnings as she's weaved them into a story about how a young girl named SEMSEMÍYE transformed herself into a bee-ing who would care for the land for generation after generation.Instructor Bio: Tiffany Joseph is an advocate for the wellbeing of W̱SÁNEĆ territory through her learning and teaching of the interconnectedness of W̱SÁNEĆ people, SENĆOŦEN language, pollinators, sea-life, and terrestrial flora and fauna that are Indigenous to the W̱SÁNEĆ ÁLEṈENEȻ. This learning and teaching intertwines SENĆOŦEN language, feminism, biodiversity, trauma-informed healing, environmental science, and more which have been shared with her through intergenerational teachings, and relationships with environmental scientists, anthropologists, linguists, counsellors, and more through her own learning and healing journey.
