We are primarily interested in research that is initiated and driven (also often governed) by community organizations, groups, or Indigenous governments/communities. We are committed to sharing academic forms of knowledge, evidence, and synthesis in accessible formats depending on the readership -- written in plain language, rich with imagery such as infographics, videos, and comic strip style products.
Please consider reaching out if:
- You have a research project in mind, want to have a research synthesis done (e.g. a literature review), want to collaborate on a project, or get some research support for your community/organization.
- You have a research question that requires funding and time - we can explore potential funding opportunities and partnership models together.
- You are a student looking to complete a meaningful undergraduate or graduate level research project, with faculty researcher supervision.
Please feel free to contact us about student opportunities, particularly if you are a (prospective) student with:
- lived or living experiences of being part of any rights/equity‑denied or rights/equity‑deserving groups; in other words, students who experience frequent or chronic forms of societal, structural, or systemic discrimination and/or exclusion
- close personal connections to people who are part of rights/equity‑denied populations
- strong interests in community-driven research, particularly with Indigenous nations or groups/organizations working with people with disabilities (our work is often related to Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD))
- interests in research on research (meta-science)
We are committed to creating pathways for your learning and involvement and strive to have our research team reflect aspects of the communities we partner with, as much as possible.
