Aboriginal Editors Initiative gathering at The Banff Centre

The Aboriginal Editors Initiative will take place at The Banff Centre from October 7 to 9, 2009. The focus of this three-day summit is to explore multi-phase training and professional development initiatives for Aboriginal editors in Canada. The working group includes Aboriginal publishers, editors, arts directors, and authors as well as project consultants and officers from national and provincial arts and cultural agencies. The goal is to develop editorial training and development for Aboriginal publishers, editors, and writers as a key component of supporting Indigenous literary arts in Canada.
