Introduction, Dan Beavon, Jerry White, Paul Maxim

Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi)

Co-hosted by Indian and Northern Affairs and the University of Western Ontario, the conference promoted interaction between researchers, policy-makers, and Aboriginal peoples. It expanded on the knowledge of the social, economic, and demographic determinants of Aboriginal well-being, and it sought to identify and facilitate the means by which this knowledge may be translated into effective policies.

The text is divided into complementary themes. Volume I begins with contextual research, followed by issues of demography and well-being, and concludes with the topical issue of education.
