The KAIROS Blanket Exercise (KBE) celebrates 25 years of sharing the Canadian story from an Indigenous perspective with thousands of Canadians and newcomers participating in the workshop over the years. The KBE went from a manager and three staff in 2017 to a manager and 11 staff at the end of 2021. With the creation of the vKBE (virtual KAIROS Blanket Exercise) in response to the COVID 19 pandemic, the popularity of the KBE grew, since access to the program via Zoom or MS Teams made it possible for anyone working from home to participate. In this 25th year and with the program in such high demand, we have concluded that it is essential for us to step back to fully understand the needs of our facilitators, partners and hosts to make the KBE’s next 25 years more robust and better able to serve and share this Canadian story. Therefore, we ask for your patience as we stop all new KBE program bookings for a period of re-evaluating and restructuring. Please note that already booked in-person and vKBEs sessions will be delivered during this period. We plan to resume new bookings in early March 2023 and thank you all for your patience. Please contact us should you have any questions. Miigwech / Thank you |
