Located in the heart of Winnipeg, Manitoba, the Agowiidiwinan Centre is at The Forks, at the junction of the Red and Assiniboine Rivers. The site is a historically significant location for First Nations people and Canadians. “Agowiidiwinan” loosely translated means Treaties or bringing things together in Anishinaabemowin. Pronounced “Ago-we-dih-wih-nun”
The Agowiidiwinan Centre is a place of learning designed to offer a balanced understanding of the Treaties through informational displays that approach Treaties chronologically from pre-contact to the development of the relations between First Nations and Europeans in contemporary times. One of the Centre’s key messages is: “We Are All Treaty People,” and the Treaty Relations Commission of Manitoba hopes that the Centre will help Canadians increase their understanding and appreciation of Treaties and our shared responsibilities as Treaty partners.
