Building relationships and shared understanding: Developing a community-based participatory action research project with an Inuit community
DownloadSpring 2023
Introduction: Evidence-based, community-led health promotion initiatives can offer a culturally-grounded option to address the effects of colonization in many Indigenous communities. Community-based research offers valuable insight into community needs and priorities when planning, delivering, and
evaluating health promotion initiatives. Indigenous research paradigms, including the Inuit Aajiiqatigiingniq Research Model, have been recognized as a valuable research framework to engage in strengths-based, community-led research with Indigenous communities. Community-based (CB) and/or participatory
action (PA) research methods have been widely acknowledged to complement or be situated within many Indigenous research paradigms. Building relationships is an essential component of Inuit research paradigms and CB and/or PA research methodologies as these approaches to research are oriented around

My research reflects on the use of drum and song in schools and reveals its significance from an Anishnaabe kwe perspective. A storied approach is used relative to Anishnaabe ways of being and knowing as ‘teachers’ in two forms: debaajimowin (narratives) and antasokannan (tradition or sacred). ...

Indigenous Conditions for Cultural Continuity: Designing Local Climate Change Adaptations in the Pluriverse
DownloadFall 2023
Wolfstone, Irene Wiens Friesen
climate change disavowal, disinformation, conspiracy theories, and anti-science sentiments. This critical transdisciplinary study integrates Indigenous Knowledges, ecofeminist philosophy, Decolonial Theory, Critical Ecopedagogy as well as published research by critical anthropologists. Key assumptions
are that without coloniality, there would be no Modernity and that without coloniality, there would be no Anthropogenic Climate Change. I use two research methodologies: Bacchi’s critical policy analysis approach and Kovach’s Indigenous methodology of re-storying. In seeking adaptation solutions, I
look to Indigenous cultures whose unparalleled longevity indicates adaptive capacity. I work with the following Indigenous conditions for cultural continuity that contribute to their cultural longevity: caring relationality with Land and interspecies kin, living the cosmology of the Land, regenerating

Uprooting and Re-Routing a Settled Sense of Place: Reading Settler Literary Cartographies of Northwestern British Columbia
DownloadFall 2021
The places of northwestern British Columbia, and the Indigenous and settler peoples who find work, build homes, establish communities, and sustain culture in these places, are often perceived as peripheral or overlooked, existing on the edge or outside of the notice, care, and understanding of the
people and places seemingly at the centre of national or global significance. When attention is turned to northwestern British Columbia, it is often to report on issues related to the legacy and ongoing work of settler colonial dispossession of Indigenous peoples from their land, including missing and
murdered Indigenous women and girls, particularly along the infamous Highway of Tears; the successes and failures of the federal and provincial governments to respect Indigenous rights and title, such as in the landmark Delgamuukw-Gisdaywa court case; and First Nations’ acts of resistance, like the

transformation through engagement with Indigenous Research Methodologies, and it provides the reader with an understanding of how ancient Indigenous knowledge structures, like the Omisimaw Leadership Model, continue to prevail and help Aboriginal women in personal and community healing, wellness and

Acts of living with: Being, doing, and coming to understand Indigenous perspectives alongside science curricula
DownloadSpring 2016
This inquiry engages with the complexity of bringing Indigenous and Western ways of knowing, being, and doing together; both in K-12 science curricula and research. It responds to Canadian provincial/territorial policies and programs, adopted since the turn of the century, that mandate integration
of Indigenous perspectives across K-12 curricula, with a particular focus on science curricula as a complex location for integration. The inquiry began as an exploration of the intersection between policy, practitioners, and practice as a means of considering what it means to integrate Indigenous
perspectives in science curricula. Given that it draws on people, traditions, and thinking that emerge from both Indigenous and Western ways of knowing, being, and doing, the inquiry also began by drawing on elements of Indigenous research methodologies and ecological interpretations of hermeneutics in order

NFRF-T LOI awarded in 2020: The scope of the project is novel in its combined concern with the well-being of Indigenous Peoples and the conservation of biodiversity; it is also unique in its intention to build capacity within Indigenous communities to document and mobilize knowledge about
biodiversity-well-being in ways that are recognized by regional-national-global institutions of biodiversity conservation. The research project was defined in collaboration with Indigenous organizations and partners in Canada and globally. We propose a place-based participatory approach that allows for
capacity-building, evidence-based research, knowledge mobilization and action in key regions globally. Led by Indigenous scholars and an Indigenous Advisory Council, the research team will engage in collaborative community-based research within Canada and five other global hubs.
