York master's student develops app for indigenous community to network

York University student Alejandro Mayoral Baños, a second-year master’s student in interdisciplinary studies, is spearheading the development of an app to help First Nations, Métis and Inuit students network with other members of York's aboriginal community.

“There are apps available that focus on aboriginal languages, but for networking there isn’t anything yet,” says Mayoral Baños. “We’re tapping into the digital generation.”
