https://www.eventbrite.com/e/wounded-healers-video-expression-reflection-transforming-research-tickets-152705222431?aff=ebdsoporgprofile
Join us for a special viewing of ‘The Wounded Healers’ with the director Romani Makkik and producer Shari Fox. Both long-time researchers and advocates in their fields, Makkik and Fox will host a discussion and Q&A session following the video, highlighting how the video and its making was a critical part of a research process. In Wounded Healers, director Romani Makkik takes us on a personal journey into reconciliation. Makkik asks, ‘how can we as Inuit come to reconcile amongst ourselves’? What started as graduate study research turned into deep engagement with a counsellor training program, a powerful experience of self-reflection, and learning how one organization and one community transforms lives by drawing on its strengths.
