History:
In the first conference in November 2002 Indian Affairs and the University of Western Ontario (UWO) brought together prominent researchers and policy makers. In March 2006, Indian Affairs and UWO joined with the National Association of Friendship Centres for the second Aboriginal Policy Research Conference.
Again this year, INAC is working with these same urban-based institutions to determine what policies, programs and services are best for First Nations across Canada.
