About this service
The sub-project intends to build up individual Indigenous Elders self-esteem, confidence and pride in their Indigenous culture through access to cultural opportunities such as star blanket-making, nature walks, drum-making, traditional food preparation, gardening based on Indigenous foods, participating at the annual Elders Gathering, and regional powwows/cultural gatherings. Elders will also be supported to access mainstream recreation and other inter-cultural opportunities such as visiting seniors programming at the local library, rec centres, museums and other cultural centres like mosques and temples. By year two, Elders will be built up to lead cultural exchange opportunities where they share their crafts, stories and food with non-Indigenous seniors.
