The University of Manitoba's Faculty of Social Work created the Indigenous Knowledges-based Master of Social Work program to meet the demand for a curriculum specifically tailored to Indigenous populations, their worldviews, traditions, and community needs.
This Indigenous-focused MSW program enables students to:
practice from Indigenous frameworks; comprehend the colonial legacy shaping current realities;
grasp concepts of social equity, anti-oppression methods, decolonization, and Indigenous sovereignty; examine traditional helping approaches relevant to social work;
revitalize and uphold Indigenous principles, customs, and systems; strengthen Indigenous self-determination
foster strong ties with Indigenous organizations and communities while evolving as skilled social work professionals.
