Initiated and led by a group of Grandparents and Knowledge Keepers, the Elders Knowledge Circle Society. plays a key role in preserving Indigenous culture, enhancing the capacity of our community's Grandparents, and strengthening relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous groups. Grandparents and Knowledge Keepers in the circle come from many Nations, including Blackfoot, Îethka Stoney Nakoda, Dene, Cree, Métis, Inuit, and more. The Elders Knowledge Circle Society is a Grandparent-led collective that operates from an Indigenous governance model that is different from the Chief and Council governance model imposed on First Nations people by the Crown.
