It is Cree Women of Eeyou Istchee’s (CWEIA) mission to value and empower women of all backgrounds as a way to strengthen our communities and our Nation. One of our main goals at CWEIA is to create a variety of spaces that embrace what we collectively uphold and value as Eeyou/Eenou Iskwaauch. In this case, the MEEI pageant is specifically aimed at the young women in our membership who are seeking experiences that will shape them into stronger, and more outspoken leaders.
The Eeyou/Eenou Iskwaau (MEEI) pageant aims to empower our Miss Eeyou/Eenou Iskwaau by taking pride in their culture and give one of them the opportunity of a lifetime to either take part in the Miss Indian World (MIW) pageant or to attend various National/International conferences.
