Description


Kathy Mal­lett and Wendy Prince are con­duct­ing a research project enti­tled Kiskin­wa­hamk­wakewin.This is a cree word which describes the task of edu­ca­tion or instruc­tion.Some of the find­ings were then tak­en and devel­oped into the social jus­tice cam­paign enti­tled Abo­rig­i­nal Chil­dren Count.Too often the debates hap­pen­ing around Abo­rig­i­nal peo­ple ignore issues for young chil­dren. This cam­paign is to reach the grass­roots and con­nect with par­ents and talk about the needs of young chil­dren. Fur­ther goals include mak­ing gov­ern­ment more aware about the issues sur­round­ing young chil­dren and their spe­cif­ic needs.
