UCW’s Indigenous history video series wins Platinum Award at 2024 Viddy Awards
University Canada West’s ‘Understanding Indigenous History: A Path Forward’, was a Platinum Award winner at the 2024 Viddy Awards.
The six-part series, produced by UCW, aims to encourage Canadians to learn about Indigenous history through powerful personal narratives.
The series was hosted by Lisa LaFlamme, an award-winning Canadian broadcast journalist, and featured extensive interviews with Phil Fontaine, a prominent First Nations leader and former National Chief of the Assembly of First Nations, and Kathleen Mahoney, an internationally recognised human rights expert.
The Platinum Award is awarded to those projects that the judges deem are written, produced, shot and/or edited in an exceptional manner.
Midya U, Vice-President, Marketing and Communications at UCW, said: “Our aim has always been to shed light on the crucial narratives of Indigenous history, and this accolade reinforces the impact of our work. Receiving this Platinum Award is a profound honour as it underscores the dedication, creativity and passion of everyone involved in this project.”
