The National Aboriginal Women’s Summit brought together the collective body of knowledge on Aboriginal women’s issues, including socio-economic concerns. There were over 60 Policy papers submitted on Aboriginal women’s issues for consideration at the Summit. These papers helped shape the discussions in the Summit Workshops. The Aboriginal women delegates discussed the recommendations arising from the Policy papers and determined the most important ones to bring forward for consideration.

The business plan indicates the initiatives upon which the Department of Labrador and Aboriginal Affairs will focus for the fiscal years 2006-07 to 2007-08.
