Very informative, it is good to know that other communities have similar cases and helping each other out and sharing. The networking opportunities with other First Nation representatives was paramount. When we leave the conference, we get to bring back all the knowledge back to our community/community development. Very good experience. Information, guidance, tools, examples and ideas, networking opportunities. Very interesting and informative speakers, and people who attended were very approachable.Theinformation shared was and will be useful. Networking, meeting others in the same field helps.
