Establishing a Presence Online:The Stó:lō Nation website

The Stó:lō Nation website establish a community presence to provide services within the Stó:lō community. The various resources found within the site focus on education needs, human resources, health and elderly care, social development, and youth and early childhood services.  The Stó:lō Nation website blends together the concept of moving forward in the 21st century to taking control of their own future with a need to understand and reconnect to their cultural heritage. The Stó:lō Nation website also provides an insight into the current issues surrounding ongoing land claims within their territories.

The link to the First Nations Education Steering Committee allows access to a provincial wide resource designed to steer education in the direction in the context that benefits First Nations across BC. I found the Aboriginal Tourism / link a mechanism to promote the individuality of First Nations a marketable community that provides and promotes First Nations culture on a global scale.

The reason I examine this site is to compare it to the Nisga’a government site, to see if any similarities and differences could be found. It also provides a glimpse into how each First Nations community is establishing a online presences that is unique to them
