The Indigenous Editors Association (IEA) is honoured to announce the return of the Indigenous Editors Circle, scheduled for spring 2025. After the passing of our founder, Gregory Younging, and the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Circle was placed on hiatus. Now, for the first time since 2017, we are excited to host this transformative event.

The Indigenous Editors Circle is an Indigenous-led, five-day educational program designed to bring meaningful change to the way Indigenous stories are published. It offers culturally informed professional development for publishing professionals, created by Indigenous storytelling experts. Rather than focusing on basic editing skills, the program centers on the distinctive cultural contexts of Indigenous stories, forming the foundation of the learning experience for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous participants.
