November 26-27, 2026: SATE Course on Indigenous Literatures

Don’t miss an exciting opportunity to join fellow educators at the annual SATE November course,
to be held from November 26-27, 2026 at Gymnase de Beaulieu in Lausanne.
We’re delighted to announce that this two-day workshop on Indigenous literatures will be led by
Patrizia Zanella, a senior Swiss National Science Foundation researcher at the University of Lausanne, who earned a PhD from the University of Fribourg for her award-winning dissertation on contemporary border-crossing Indigenous literatures. The workshop will focus on Cherie Dimaline’s The Marrow Thieves, one of the most widely taught Indigenous texts in Canadian classrooms, and will include discussion of works by First Nations, Métis, Inuit, Native American/American Indian and Alaska Native authors in addition to Indigenous writers from Te Moana-nui-ā-Kiwa, Oceania.
