In 2014, Lakehead University made a commitment to incorporate an Indigenous Content Requirement (ICR) in all undergraduate degree programs.  With several courses integrating ICR throughout the curriculum, the School of Outdoor Recreation, Parks and Tourism (ORPT) remains one of the leading proponents of this initiative.  With a welcome ceremony for first-year students and visits to the Fort William First Nation, the school has also integrated ICR into field-based experiences.

One of the most recent initiatives was the development of a code of conduct for Anemki Wajiw (Mount McKay). Produced with the Keepers of Anemki Wajiw and by students in OUTD 3715 (Aboriginal Tourism), the goal of this project was to developed a code of conduct that ORPT students, faculty and staff can abide by when travelling on the traditional territory of the Fort William First Nation.
