MNBC and UBC have been working together on the creation of a participatory DVD series about the History and Culture of Métis in BC. This series provides an innovative interactive DVD that features a number of distinct strands about Métis history, culture, elder life histories, dance and harvesting. An integral part of the DVD is the extensive community involvement in all stages of the process. The DVD has been developed for use in high schools and comm
unities across B.C.

In September of 2008 at the MNBC Annual General Meeting, Dr. Mike Evans was invited to speak about this DVD series and share clips from the upcoming DVD. To view video of his presentation, please follow the link below.

 

Dr. Mike Evans is an Associate Professor and Department Head of Community, Culture and Global Studies at UBC-Okanagan.
