Thank you Zhaawnong. I am now writing up a personal land acknowledgement to my hometown in China as a part of my dissertation defence. Your video inspired me. My question is: if I come from that hometown/land but I spent my recent ten years here in Canada, how do I address my acknowledgement (even I am away for ten years) and how to make connections between my current status and my hometown land. Thank you!!

Would love you to share links to some you think are especially good, not to copy, just for inspiration 🙏

The college that work for has scripted land acknowledgment that makes me cringe. You have inspired me to write a new land acknowledgment that will include a call to action of reducing GHG and a Net Zero building practice that will require renewable energy into the design. Thanks and keep up the good work!

I need to prepare a land acknowledgment for my job interview but I don't know what to say and write. Could you please help me? Thanks in advance.

Thank you. I am making a New Year’s resolution to make my own land acknowledgement. I appreciate your patience and kindness. I am feeling a burden as I am interacting with Palestinian content and the reality of the occupation of indigenous land. Peace in 2024.
