The Institute for Gender and the Economy operates on the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the New Credit.

Today, this meeting place is still home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
