2025 RAIC Conference on Architecture

The RAIC acknowledges that the Conference will be held in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal on the unceded Indigenous lands and ancestral territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka/Mohawk Nation. Kanien’kehá:ka is known as a gathering place for many First Nations, and we recognize the Kanien’kehá:ka as custodians of the lands and waters on which we will be gathering. Recognizing and respecting the presence of these historical and contemporary communities, and their unending connection to and care of this land, is an important step towards building trust and creating or renewing relationships.
