| 520 | |a The Elders Gathering on July 11-13, 1994, brought together 12 First Nations and Metis elders (all women) from 11 southern Saskatchewan communities to share their stories and to identify sociopolitical issues and their related learning needs. Throughout the spring and summer, the project coordinator traveled to First Nations and Metis communities to get to know the Elders and prepare for the Gathering. At these small meetings, the coordinator and the Elders started to identify what and how they wanted to learn based on their perspective. Evaluation and feedback processes were ongoing. Findings indicated that programs and services for the Elders must be developed in consultation with and with the participation of the Elders, and educational programs must be culturally appropriate and community based. Workshops were urgently required in many areas to meet the educational needs of the Elders, including the following: assisting them in writing programs to preserve their stories, legends, and languages and to contribute to their knowledge of their history; providing information on health issues, such as diabetes and tuberculosis; sharing knowledge on traditional medicines; discussing the issue of living on fixed incomes and sharing ideas on budgeting; and writing proposals and lobbying. The development of housing projects specific to the needs of Aboriginal Elders was urgently needed. (Appendixes include information from visits, and correspondence. Contains 10 references.)
