June 21 is National Indigenous Peoples Day.

This year marks the 30th anniversary of this national recognition in Canada. As we celebrate the vibrant cultures, histories, languages, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples, we also recognize the importance of continued learning, meaningful relationships, and Indigenous-led futures.

At IRN, we honour this day by reflecting on the responsibilities of research, education, and community-building in advancing Indigenous resurgence and self-determination.

June is a month of celebration in Canada commemorating National Indigenous History Month. Strong advocacy from representatives of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities led to the creation of National Indigenous History Month in 2009 and National Indigenous Peoples Day (formerly National Aboriginal Day) in 1996. Both honour the distinct cultures of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities and encourages widespread recognition of the accomplishments and resilience of Indigenous Peoples across Turtle Island.

In these images, we share some highly influential Indigenous research texts to celebrate the wonderful work being done to Indigenize research spaces.
