| Summary: | Since much of the first four years of the Waswanipi Cree Model Forest was marked by difficulties, there is a great deal to be explored. The structure and operation during the first four years of the Model Forest was quite standard, but some interesting developments occurred to tackle problems as they arose and some modest success was experienced. However, the changes made up to this point were not enough to fully meet the needs of this unique venture. Moreover, because of the many struggles encountered during this period, few benefits were achieved. Nonetheless, on the table now are many suggested and proposed changes to the Model Forest, and as a result great potential exists for learning about cross-cultural partnerships with First Nations, about building capacity in remote regions, and about improving community participation. |
