About
Cat will present some of the important aspects of First Nations Knowledges shared in the Faculty of Science and Technology. She will show some of the more advanced technology used for this work. Cat is also keen on audience participation on how to use technology in co-development, where the community is involved in designing, developing and implementing new technologies. In particular, how communities bring local techniques for self-governance into development projects. Projects will focus on construction, housing, bilingual programs, and technology to support language sharing.
