Abstract:
The City of Kamloops and the First Nation of Tk’emlúps te Secwe̓pemc are two communities located in the southern interior of British Columbia. In recent years, the communities have moved forward on a new approach to relationship building and reconciliation. Starting with a series of Community-to-Community forums that began over a decade ago,
Kamloops has taken steps to recognize Tk’emlúps culture, values, and history through agreements, physical projects, and plans. The pathway that the communities have started on has branched in several directions and included collaboration on projects ranging from transit service to park trails to plans for a new cultural centre on the site of a former elementary school.
