Join us - at the centre of North America, in the heart of the continent - for three days of learning, networking and celebration at the premier community economic development (CED) event in Canada!
The theme of this year's conference is Full Circle: Sharing a Vision for the 7th Generation. Our inspiration is an original law kept and maintained by generations of Aboriginal people: just as our actions will affect generations to come, we are living in a world that was shaped by those before us. Aboriginal elders remind us to think and decide in a way that is conscious of the seven generations of people that will be born in the future - ensuring that we respect our Mother Earth and her spirited beings.
Hosted at the University of Winnipeg, this year's conference includes over 45 learning and information sharing sessions, as well as exciting site visits and networking opportunities. All plenary sessions and keynote addresses, as well as numerous workshops in each time slot, will have simultaneous translation into French and English
The 2009 National CED Conference is organized by the Canadian CED Network in partnership withSEED Winnipeg and Ka Ni Kanichihk.
