Learn Mi'kmaw with shalan joudry: Introductions

If you're seeing this, it's because you know the importance of shared language. That's why Community Forests International is excited to share the first in a series of short language videos generously created and shared by L'nu storyteller, ecologist, and cultural interpreter shalan joudry.

In this first episode, shalan invites you to learn how to say hello and thank you in Mi'kmaw!

In Canada and around the globe, climate justice cannot be separated from Indigenous reconciliation and the work of decolonization. That is why Community Forests International is continually learning ways to centre Indigenous justice within our work to protect and restore the special Wabanaki forests — all while working to deepen our partnerships with Indigenous Nations, organizations, and communities. When Indigenous languages are revitalized, so too is the diversity of life on the land.
