What others are saying about Flavio:
"Flavio is real, sincere and open in sharing his knowledge of how to build better relations with Indigenous Peoples. He provides an incredibly important contextual lens to those of us working in Indigenous communities, emphasizing our ultimately innate and human connection to how we relate to one another with respect and understanding. I would strongly recommend that everyone take training in Indigenous Awareness, regardless of whether or not you work in a specifically Indigenous community, and an absolute must, if you do! We are all responsible for understanding where we come from in order to contribute meaningfully to where we will go, together." F. • Participant at Community Futures Conference
"Flavio's delivery was perfect for such a sensitive topic. I personally learned a lot during the session and would gladly have listened endlessly. Just since the session, there have been so many relevant references in news and other interest fees, that I feel so much more equipped to understand." J.B. • Chilliwack School District #33
"I found Flavio's training very entertaining and enlightening. I learned a great deal about indigenous culture and the false perceptions and misunderstandings I had. This course was a real eye-opener and has left me wanting more." R.B. • Natural Resources Canada
"Flavio is knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate. He is an incredible instructor and his delivery is impeccable. Highly recommend this training as it contains relevant and valuable information!" J.T. • Justice Services Branch, Ministry of Attorney General
"I first saw/met Flavio in 2012 at a semi-annual company meeting. Prior to that, the limited history I had about First Nations People(s) left me with little empathy and understanding and as such, little success in my professional life when interacting with First nations People(s). Flavio’s education has changed me. Today’s class has changed me – all for the better. I feel enlightened, humbled and better equipped to engage and do business with First nations People(s). Thank you so very much." S.P. • BC Housing

Being the son of an Anishnabe mother and Italian-Canadian father, Flavio has grown up in two worlds, and is honoured for what both have bought him.
