Indigenous Research Ethics Webinars

Learning & Education Advancement Fund Plus (LEAF+)

Using exemplars and case studies drawn from the Arts & Science Indigenous research community, this series of four webinars will welcome audiences to develop a deeper understanding of ethical engagement with Indigenous peoples and communities. The webinars will situate such engagement as integral to an academically rigorous approach in a variety of contexts, including in the Social Sciences, the Sciences, and the Humanities, and research undertaken by both Indigenous and non-Indigenous students and faculty, research taking place in partnership with Indigenous organizations and communities, and research taking place on Indigenous territories and/or about Indigenous lands.

Indigenous faculty are profiled at the forefront of this webinar/curricular package, highlighted for their research and pedagogical excellence, fully realized in relationship to community.
