  • Dr. Nel Wieman: Elders, Belonging, and Public Health in First Nations Communities
    Apr 2 2026

    First Nations elders play a vital role in their communities. Forcing them to relocate in the pursuit of adequate health care doesn’t just undermine their dignity—it severs key familial and cultural connections.

This special episode of The Conversation Piece features content from her presentation at The Walrus Talks at Home: Aging and Belonging, supported by The Belonging Forum, an initiative of the Samuel Centre for Social Connectedness.


    Dr. Wieman spoke at The Walrus Talks at Home: Aging and Belonging on December 2, 2025.
