Indigenous Research Ethics Webinars

Learning & Education Advancement Fund Plus (LEAF+)

This series of films and related curricular resources will welcome audiences to develop a deeper understanding of ethical engagement with Indigenous peoples and communities. Using exemplars and case studies drawn from the Arts & Science (A&S) Indigenous research community, the films and curricular resources will profile Indigenous faculty across A&S, highlighted for their research and pedagogical excellence that is fully realized in relationship to community.  The curricular resources developed in conjunction with the films will situate such engagement as integral to an academically rigorous approach in a variety of contexts. These contexts include research in the Social Sciences, Sciences, and Humanities, 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.


Outcomes

  • Build and strengthen relationships between researchers and Indigenous communities and with the University more broadly.
  • Build and strengthen connections and shared understandings between networks of student and scholars engaged in Indigenous research at A&S.
  • Contribute to the A&S Priority of Indigenous Research, Teaching, and Learning as outlined in the Academic Plan through the development of curricular resources.
