Happy final day of IIDRN! 🌴
We are so grateful for the time we shared with our Elder Panel on Day Two. Their voices, stories, and guidance ground us in Indigenous brain health, reminding us why we do this work. We will carry their wisdom forward into future conversations and collaborations.

We began our morning by Gifting a Blanket to IIDRN Co-Chair, Dr. Makarena Dudley - a gesture of deep respect traditionally given to honor significant accomplishments, spiritual leadership, and those who care for and guide others.
Thank you for all you have done for Indigenous communities worldwide
