Land Acknowledgement

The Nabila Walji Foundation respects all people who share, celebrate, and care for the Treaty 7 territory where our foundation is based in the City of Calgary on the traditional lands of Southern Alberta, and we honor the original caretakers of the land who remind us of the ongoing histories that precede us.

We acknowledge the traditional territories of the peoples of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot First Nation tribes of Siksika, the Piikuni, the Kainai; the Stoney Nakoda First Nation tribes of Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley; and the Tsuut'ina First Nation.

The Nabila Walji Foundation is committed to the principles of social justice, equity, and solidarity with our African community-based partners. 

In alignment with these values, the Nabila Walji Foundation is dedicated to a journey of continuous learning, reflection, and relationship building, in solidarity with Indigenous communities in Canada and abroad.
