Culture 2022 Sudbury IYCFF First Nation Grassroots Group

Stories from the Bush

Funded Amount: $30000
This project seeks to work with Anishinaabe (Algonquin & Ojibwe) communities across Ontario for youth to learn about culture, land, and language. They will host four seasonal community gatherings/workshops to learn land-based skills and gather Stories from the Bush. Fernwood Publishing has shown interest in their proposed project. They plan to invite community members to author chapters discussing their relationships with the land. They as the youth will facilitate the publishing process and edit this collection, whilst authoring their own stories throughout the project as well.
