Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, & Two-Spirit (MMIWG) is a human rights concern today. Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit people experience higher rates of violence and many have been found missing or murdered. In 2015, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission supported a call for a nationwide public inquiry into violence against Indigenous women and girls. On June 3, 2019, the final report of the National Inquiry was completed and made available to the public (Canadian Encyclopedia).

Here are a selection of library eBooks, library streaming videos, and websites where you can learn more about MMWIG. You can also discover more resources through Library Search.
