OTTAWA, Oct. 3, 2017 /CNW/ - Hosted by Jennifer David, the Indigenous Writers' Gathering hopes to encourage reconciliation by increasing the understanding of Indigenous issues, cultures, and history.

A panel of prominent Indigenous writers representing the three Indigenous groups will engage in a lively conversation on how to overcome adversity and build resilience.

The discussion will take place in English, with simultaneous French translation, and will be followed by a question period.
