The SING Consortium began in the USA in year 2011. Since then, it has expanded to across the globe to include sites in Canada, Aotearoa, and Australia. The goal of SING is to include as many Indigenous communities, tribal students and leaders as possible. To that end, each SING location operates independently to best reflect the interests of Indigenous communities that are local to them. Please refer to each of the other SING locations to read about their respective workshops.
