Red Shawl Campaign

October 2-4 

The Mi’kmaq-Wolastoqey Centre’s Red Shawl Campaign will be held from Oct. 2-4, 2023. This campaign recognizes and honours the lost lives of Indigenous Woman and Girls and brings awareness to the issues of violence, injustice and systemic barriers that have given rise to a crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, in Canada.

A symbol of protection, the red shawl brings healing as we seek action and move toward justice for our lost sisters and their loved ones. This year, we will honour and reflect with this three-day campaign, through a Red Shawl exhibit and a variety of community events. Please join us in honouring those we have lost.
