The Wise Practices Gathering is hosted by CAAN and the AHA Centre in support of Community-Based HIV Research (CBR) by and with First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples in Canada.

If you’ve attended a Wise Practices Gathering in the past, you will know how meaningful these events are to our community. Wise Practises provides opportunities to share our research with our communities, to learn about new and exciting Indigenous research practices and methodologies and meet each other, and so much more! As a past participant once said, attending a Wise Practices gathering is just different from any other conference—it’s like coming home.
