Content warning: Please be aware that sensitive matters around violence may be discussed. Additionally, as an educator, we encourage you to preview the workshops before sharing them with your students. Some of the stories could be triggering for some individuals as they face the topic of violence. Some content is more appropriate for older audiences.
Please remember to give students context and be prepared to have open discussions with them in class. Many of the proposed activities in the educator guides involve action projects to encourage students to be a part of the solution. We recommend you have supports, such as a guidance counsellor, available for students who may need assistance or additional time to process. Please visit the Wellness Centre to discover other support resources available.

Team 700: What do you stand for?
Watch this one-minute short to learn who Team 700 is and what they stand for. This powerful snippet captures the spirit of Indigenous youth — honouring the past, living strong in the present, and building a future rooted in culture, resilience, and strength. It’s about reclaiming our power and standing for something greater than ourselves — for our communities, our ancestors, and the generations to come. The video ends with a call to action, inviting you to reflect on your own values and join the movement. What do you stand for?

Team 700: The origin story
In this video workshop for grades 7+, get to know Team 700 – an all-Indigenous youth boxing team whose name carries a lot of meaning. The “700” represents the approximately 700 youth who age out of government care every year in British Columbia alone, majority of which are Indigenous youth. Team 700 is about more than boxing — it’s about reclaiming identity, finding strength through culture, and building a circle of support. The youth share what it means to be part of a team where everyone understands the barriers Indigenous youth often face, like racism, intergenerational trauma, and systemic inequality. But they also share the pride, power, and cultural connection that shine through — from the medicines they carry to the languages they speak and the values they live by. Team 700 shows that true strength comes from lifting each other up, honouring your roots, and refusing to give up on yourself or your community.
This workshop is intended for grades 7-12
Team 700: Staying Soft
In this video workshop with Team 700 for grades 7+, you’ll hear how boxing has created space — especially for men — to be soft, to feel deeply, and to stay connected to their emotions. The youth and mentors on the team share how stepping into the ring isn’t just about strength, but about healing, vulnerability, and reclaiming what it truly means to be a warrior. This video breaks down harmful stereotypes around masculinity and what it means to be a “fighter,” showing instead that real strength comes from knowing yourself, honouring your feelings, and refusing to let the world harden you. Through culture, community, and movement, Team 700 reminds us that being a warrior is about protecting your heart — not hiding it.

Rooted in Dignity
Dave Sergerie, Coordinator of the First Nations Identification (ID1N) project, opened up about the theme of violence. An Anishinabe from Val-d’Or, he was exposed to violence—whether verbal, emotional or physical, as a witness or a victim—from a very young age. In this workshop, Dave shares how these early experiences impacted his path into adulthood, leading to a turning point that allowed him to free himself from the weight of that trauma. Today he leads the ID1N project, which addresses another form of violence: cultural appropriation. Represented by the bear symbol, ID1N is a tool that helps identify and authenticate artists, artisans, businesses, and entrepreneurs who are truly First Nations.

Contre la violence : la dignité
Dave Sergerie, coordonnateur du projet Identification des Premières Nations (ID1N), s’est ouvert sur le thème de la violence. Anishinabe de Val-d’Or, il fut exposé à la violence — qu’elle fût verbale, émotionnelle ou physique, en tant que témoin ou victime — dès son plus jeune âge. Dans cet atelier, Dave partage comment ces premières expériences ont eu un impact sur son chemin vers l’âge adulte, menant à un tournant qui lui permit de se libérer du poids de ce traumatisme. Aujourd’hui il dirige le projet ID1N, qui s’attaque à une autre forme de violence: l’appropriation culturelle. Représenté par le symbole de l’ours, ID1N est un outil qui permet d’identifier et d’authentifier les artistes, artisans, entreprises et entrepreneurs qui sont véritablement des Premières Nations.
