To fund a five-month training program for volunteers and staff of a Pawnee earthlodge which will equip them to conduct participatory education programs in the lodge and thus acquaint visitors with aspects of traditional Pawnee culture. A body of material - bibliographies, taped lectures and video-taped programs - that will serve as the core of future training programs will be created.
