Socioecomical Forum


Acting now …for the future

The First Nations Socioeconomic Forum was held on October 25, 26 and 27 2006 in the community of Mashteuiatsh, under the theme « Acting now…for the future ». Hundreds of participants, including the Chiefs of Quebec’s First Nations communities, Federal and Provincial government officials, as well as representatives of the civil society took part in the discussions which addressed the following four (4) themes:

  • Economy and employment
  • Education and Culture
  • Health, social services and early childhood services
  • Infrastructures and sustainable community development

Discussions focused mainly on definite commitments of partners to upgrade the living conditions of our First Nations members, regardless of their place of residency. A report on the Forum is available.
