Kanuhkwene: An Empowering Concept by and for Oneida Women.
Hagen, Janet W.; And Others
Journal of Humanistic Education and Development, v33 n3 p123-30 Mar 1995
The Kanuhkwene Project, based on a traditional concept of community, was developed by Oneida women to address critical social issues. Kanuhkwene empowers through connection with the social world and the natural world, and is instructive for what it shows about the possibilities of mainstream social services versus traditional Native American values and institutions.
