The speakers invite us to consider an approach that changes the structures of knowledge production through tackling issues such as funding management of Global South-led research, transfer of power to researchers in the South, a recognition of the diverse forms of knowledge and knowledge production, and an appreciation for the diverse understandings of success and impact across contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button left\" href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/learn-with-lerrn\/webinars\/#webinar-20-april-2021\">Video recording &amp; post-webinar report<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 id=\"guest-speakers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Guest speakers:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/people\/james-milner\/\"><strong>James Milner<\/strong><\/a>, Associate Professor of Political Science at Carleton University and Director of\u00a0LERRN: The Local Engagement Refugee Research Network.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Richa\u00a0Shivakoti<\/strong>, Senior Research Associate at the Canada Excellence Research Chair (CERC) in Migration and Integration.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Amanda Coffie<\/strong>, Research Fellow at the Legon Center for International Affairs and Diplomacy, University of Ghana.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/people\/roula-el-rifai\/\">Roula El-Rifai<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>Senior Program Specialist with the Democratic and Inclusive Governance Division at\u00a0Canada\u2019s International Development Research Centre \u2013 IDRC.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_event_type":[248],"cu_event_audience":[],"class_list":["post-3619","cu_event","type-cu_event","status-publish","hentry","cu_event_type-webinars"],"acf":{"cu_event_start_date":"2021-04-20T10:00:00","cu_event_end_date":"2021-04-20T11:00:00","cu_event_location_type":"in-person","cu_event_meeting_address_type":"on-campus","cu_building":false,"cu_event_meeting_room":"","cu_event_meeting_address_full":null,"cu_event_virtual_type":"tbd","cu_event_virtual_meeting_link":"","cu_post_thumbnail":false,"cu_event_cost":"","cu_event_registration":"","cu_event_secondary_button":"","cu_event_contact_name":"Refugee Research Network","cu_event_email":"","cu_event_phone":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/3619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/3619\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4446,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/3619\/revisions\/4446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_event_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_type?post=3619"},{"taxonomy":"cu_event_audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_audience?post=3619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
