The forum seeks to rally and bring together the main actors in the world of Indigenous education and all post-secondary institutions in Quebec and across Canada.

The theme of the forum : "Falling into step with First Peoples students" to…

- Show respect for the realities of First Nations and Inuit people regarding education in Québec (e.g., language, culture, history, pride in their identity, etc.).

- Support the multiple paths and trajectories of First Peoples students.

- Recognize the systemic barriers and challenges associated with each of the different levels of education.

- Identify potential mechanisms to overcome these barriers, determine the roles of different actors (governments, educational institutions, services, etc.), and obtain concrete commitments from these actors to support and guide First Peoples students throughout their education.
