ZKA’AN NI-BMIWDOOWIN GCHI-KINOOMAADWINAN, Building the Fire, Walking with Medicine is a one-week program for Indigenous students in grades 9 and 10 with an interest in exploring healthcare opportunities. This program is run collaboratively with the University of Toronto Temerty Faculty of Medicine’s Office of Access and Outreach (OAO) and the Office of Indigenous Health, ZKA’AN NI-BMIWDOOWIN GCHI-KINOOMAADWINAN, and will provide 10 youth with culturally safe and trauma-informed programming with opportunities to build long-lasting relationships from within the program. With greater exposure to Indigenous leadership, knowledges, governance systems and healing practices, participants were encouraged to reflect on the environment around them and were empowered to carve their own meaningful paths forward, walking with confidence, a greater sense of connection, purpose, and community. This summer, ZNGBK programming will be held in August 2026, in person at the Temerty Faculty of Medicine. The program aims to nurture each student’s understanding of Health and Wellness including what it means with regards to self, family, community, and nationhood. 10 participants interested in exploring or pursuing a career in health, research and sciences and identify as First Nations, Inuit, Metis, as well as being currently in grades 9 and 10, will be chosen through an application process.
