20. What obligation does public media have to Indigenous Peoples?

With CBC/Radio-Canada publishing their first ever National Indigenous Strategy, we take a look at public media's role in serving, reflecting and representing Indigenous Peoples – both on and off screen. 

We examine how public media historically have treated, reported on, and engaged with Indigenous communities. We look at current efforts by broadcasters including NITV, RNZ and NRK Sápmi to reach and connect with Indigenous audiences in meaningful and engaging ways. 

And we explore CBC/Radio-Canada's new strategy – what difference will it actually make? And will audiences notice a difference?
