Scope and content | File contains a presentation regarding Education by Kathy Nelson and Dawnis Kennedy. Nelson, a sixteen year old grade ten student, discusses education at the Roseau River First Nations Gineau School. Nelson states that it is not as advanced as other reserve schools and that youth require "guidance, education, community support, and recreation programs." Kennedy, another sixteen year old student, discusses the importance of Aboriginal youth, problems associated with alcoholism, the need for more funding and economic development, and the need for more role models for youth. Following the presentations the assembled Commissioners discuss some of the issues raised with Kennedy and Nelson. | |
