Embracing an Indigen/ous/ist paradigm: Research as an Interface Journey
✨ Summary
Exploring research as relational practice and what it means to "be" a researcher at the interface of Indigenous and institutional worlds.
🌱 Overview
Join us for an interactive online gathering exploring research as relational practice, grounded in accountability, reciprocity, and intergenerational presencing. Together, we'll reflect on ceremony, ethical tensions around consent, and what it means to show up as a researcher at the interface of Indigenous and institutional worlds.
Ana Maria Peredo, Ella Henry and Joseph Galdstone (Elders Circle), along with Stephanie Daher and Peter Musinguzi (Peer Circle), will share their lived experiences of "research at the interface" - that generative space of encounter (and sometimes friction) between what is legible to the academy and what is accountable to community.
👥 Who Should Attend?
Whether you're arriving with years of experience or just beginning to sense what this paradigm makes possible, you are warmly welcome. If you're encountering Indigen/ous/ist research for the first time - or if you're already engaging Indigenous, decolonial, participatory, or action research approaches - this space is for you. And if you're experienced and seeking thoughtful community, we warmly invite you to bring your voice into the dialogue.
💭 Why Attend?
If you're navigating (or anticipating) the interface between Indigenous commitments and institutional expectations - and you're looking for a space that honours relationship, protocol, and responsibility - this session is for you.
🌍 See you on March 26 (or March 27, depending on where you are in the world)!
