Indigenous Connections Accessible through Meewasin’s New AppOver the past year and a half, Meewasin has worked hard with a variety of organizations, elders, and stakeholders on the Meewasin Indigenous Experiences Project, supported by Western Economic Diversification Canada, to expand on the First Nation and Métis interpretive content available in the Meewasin Valley.The goal of the Meewasin Indigenous Experiences Project is to provide authentic and interactive educational content to local and international tourists and lifelong learners. The first project of its kind for our region, the content, hosted on an app platform, focuses on interpreting stories of First Nation and Métis People throughout Meewasin Valley and region in an outdoor, urban setting. The Northeast Swale is identified as a culturally significant area, and is the first to be highlighted on Meewasin’s new app. Content on the app is supplementary to the information available physically on corresponding on-site interpretive panels.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbz0U_lFP_E ...
