Braun During a late afternoon ceremony at Government House on Tuesday, May 15, Lieutenant Governor Janice Filmon honoured Maria Falk Lodge as one of five recipients of the annual Historical Preservation and Promotion Award, an award presented to Manitobans “for their prolonged, meritorious service in the preservation and promotion of the province’s history and heritage” (MHS website). The awards, which have been given annually since 2011, are sponsored by the Lt. Gov’s office and administered by the Manitoba Historical Society on the basis of nominations from the public. To date 40 Manitobans have received the award. At the ceremony Maria was accompanied by her husband Bernie Lodge, their children and several guests.

“Just Doing What Needs to Be Done:” Rural Women's Everyday
“Just doing what needs to be done:” Rural Women’s Everyday Peacebuilding on the Prairies by Jessica Robin Neustaeter A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of the University of Manitoba In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Peace and Conflict Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2016 Jessica Robin Neustaeter ABSTRACT Usually bubbling under the surface of the ordinary everyday routines of life, women’s volunteering in their communities, helping out and just doing what needs to be done, represent a significant phenomenon in sustaining and developing human life and civilization. Embedded within their everyday community action is a dialectical learning and cognitive praxis which informs their situated public care practice. Grassroots peacebuilding is dependent on the efforts of volunteers. As well, volunteering itself is a means for building social cohesion, solidarity and trust—factors fundamental to sustainable development and peace. Rural women’s community involvement is situated within the everyday of their diverse communities. There is diversity both within and between rural communities; as well rural women represent a diverse group in regards to age, race, class, ethnicity, language, marital and family status, ability, and religion. Blending participant observation and in-depth interviewing, this ethnographic study explored rural women’s community involvement practice and learning in South-Central Manitoba. This study invited women from across the region; representing a mix of age, race, education, ability, ethnicity, religion and areas of involvement, to share their stories of being involved in their communities. Their narratives revealed a rich story of women’s peacebuilding for individual and community wellbeing fitting into a tradition of rural women’s community development.
