    SSHRC IDG awarded 2021: The objective of the Relational Governance Project (RGP) is to study how First Nations create shared jurisdiction with each other to deliver governmental services.A second objective of the proposed research is examining policy making within Indigenous led institutions ­ what

    theories are needed for policy research that focuses on Indigenous led institutions? This proposal outlines two pressing research needs.

The goal of our research is to build

    new and rich knowledge about what newcomers think about Indigenous Peoples and issues through a systematic, comparative case study in Edmonton and Montréal. We will conduct focus groups and interviews as a novel and practical way to study how settler colonialism as an ideological project might

Specifically, we want to create a safe space for dialogue to ask: (1) What do first and second-generation immigrants think about Indigenous Canada

    SSHRC Awarded IDG 2015: The project focuses on historical analysis of indigenous Hawaiians' [Kanaka Maoli] submissions to Hawaiian language newspapers (1834 - 1948). In 19th century Hawaii, missionaries' leisure-discourses were intimately connected with colonial structures and judgments about

    by missionaries. The intellectual outcomes will include: Demonstrate the role of leisure discourses in colonial misrepresentations of Indigenous practices and Kanaka Maoli use of cultural practices to maintain well-being and resist colonialization. Materially contribute to the Hawaiian-language

    intellectual commons through search strategies and translation; Historical analysis has implications for current tourism/leisure practices and self-determination actions relevant for other Indigenous communities.
