DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the 2026 Global Community Land Trust (CLT) Virtual Summit\, a six-week series of online events from May 5 – June 10. Explore the full program and register for more events here.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn May 26\, the Canadian Network of Community Land Trusts will host a panel exploring how CLTs can support processes of decolonization through community stewardship of land. \n\n\n\nBringing together land trust initiatives from across so-called Canada\, this session will highlight how organizations are engaging with rematriation\, Land Back\, cultural resurgence\, and housing justice within settler-colonial contexts. Speakers will share experiences from both established and emerging initiatives\, including efforts to secure permanently affordable housing\, support Indigenous-led governance\, and reclaim land for cultural and ecological purposes. \n\n\n\nGrounded in diverse regional experiences—from urban neighborhoods in Vancouver to Indigenous-led initiatives in Northern Ontario and Kingston—the discussion will examine both the possibilities and tensions of using CLT models within existing legal and political systems. The session will also reflect on key questions around governance\, language\, and the role of women and Two-Spirit leadership in shaping land stewardship practices. \n\n\n\nDesigned for CLT practitioners\, policymakers\, and others engaged in land and housing justice\, this session will offer insights into how CLTs can be adapted to support Indigenous leadership and decolonial approaches to land. The event will be conducted in English\, with interpretation available in French and live captions available in 60+ languages to support accessibility. \n\n\n\nThe global #CLTVirtualSummit2026 is a six-week series of free online events running May 5 – June 10\, 2026\, and anchored by World CLT Day on May 15.
