Dr. Susan O'Donnell of the National Research Council (NRC) presented a paper on the founding meeting of the group,
Research in Information and Communication Technologies with Aboriginal Communities (RICTA) that took place in Balmertown in March of this year. Susan attended the Community Informatics Research Network (CIRN) Conference in South Africia this past week to do several presentations.
The paper was co-written with Brian Walmark of the KO Research Institute. It outlines the activities of the founding meeting including the community visit to Deer Lake and the nation-wide video conference chaired and facilitated by Brian Beaton's K-Net Services Coordinator.
