The University of New Zealand will host the seventh annual World Indigenous Peoples Conference on Education Nov. 27 to Dec. 1, 2005. The conference will be opened by the Moari Queen Dame Te Atairangikaahu who visited southern Alberta in 2002 when Morley hosted the event.

The event includes keynote speakers from around the world, seminars, workshops, and an array of activities and sight seeing opportunities.

The theme of the 2005 conference is Te Toi Roa which calls for a celebration of Indigenous stories and beliefs, values and history.

TeToi Roa calls for presenters to share stories about leadership and what leadership is needed in the 21 century.

Abstracts from those wanting to present papers are being accepted until Dec. 31. For further information, visit www.wipce2005.com.
