52 Ways to Reconcile

Chapters4Change 2026 Theme: Growth & Reconciliation

We are excited to share that the Chapters4Change theme for 2026 will be Growth & Reconciliation. With only approximately 13 Calls to Action considered complete, and only two of those having been completed in the past five years, the need for all Canadians to act on reconciliation remains urgent!

Chapters4Change is specifically committed to Education for Reconciliation. As one way of living this commitment in the coming year, our community will walk together through David A. Robertson’s powerful and practical book, 52 Ways to Reconcile: How to Walk with Indigenous Peoples on the Path to Healing.

​

Beginning January 1, 2026, we will take on one weekly reconciliation action, inspired by the book’s approach: 52 small, meaningful steps, one per week, that move us collectively toward stronger, healthier, and more respectful relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.

​
