Abstract

The authors are Métis scholars and members of the Métis Women’s Circle. The Métis Women’s Circle is a not-for-profit, national organization that represents approximately 200 aboriginal women of Métis and mixed heritage from across Canada. The Circle offers services and programs to develop and share Métis communities’ knowledge with their people and the broader Canadian public. This chapter represents a dialogue between the authors regarding the protocols for information technology as seen from their indigenous worldviews.
