Ojibwe Cultural Preservation Organization - Culture

In order to convey the Ojibwe Culture, it is necessary to understand the word culture and its definition. First, culture is the sum total of the ways of life of a people that involves learned behavior patterns, attitudes, and artifacts.  It involves traditions, habits and customs and the means of which they order and interpret the world.  A system of standards for perceiving, believing, evaluating and acting.

 Culture is a common belief and practices of a group of people.  Values, ideas, and symbolic meaningful systems that are transmitted and created by a group of people to succeeding generations.
