Every October 4th, Amnesty International partners with the Native Women’s Association of Canada, KAIROS, the National Association of Friendship Centers, the Canadian Federation of Students and family members to call for an end to violence and discrimination against Indigenous women and girls in Canada.
These vigils are held to remember the lives of Indigenous women and to call for justice and action from the Canadian government to ensure the safety and protection of Indigenous women.
Amnesty International encourages everyone to participate in this year’s Sisters in Spirit Vigil in Regina, October 4th at 6:30pm in Victoria Park.
