afternoon .. I just participated in an online gathering of the
editors and the chapter authors for a new book where Franz
Seibel (Keewaytinook Okimakanak Research Institute), Lyle Thomas
(Fort Severn Network Manager) and I have our chapter, “Building
resilience First Nations with digital technologies”. I did a
short presentation about our chapter along with the other
authors. The session is recorded and will be available on the
CRRF youtube channel. </p>

is a collection of chapters about “Building Community
Resilience” from the 2015 conference presentations in PEI. There
were over 50 participants from across Canada and other countries
using the Zoom web platform to come together (the same platform
that Tim is now using at FNEC). More information about the book,
including a portal to purchase the book, can be found at <a

hosted both the 2015 PEI conference in Summerside and today’s
online gathering. Rob McMahon presented at this year’s CRRF
conference in Nelson, BC. Susan and I did presentations at last
year’s conference in Guelph, ON. This particular research group
is a great resource with many different partners and members for
anyone interested in learning more about rural development and
the work happening across Canada and elsewhere in the world. </p>
