Chris has lead numerous research projects ranging from litigation-based archival research to Indigenous history to organizational records management history. He has been the project lead for document discovery on major multi-million dollar governmental litigation and the adoption of an electronic content management system by an educational organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most recently, his role with Carleton University has offered challenges in managing the Archives &amp; Special Collections portfolios, and team members to ensure teaching and learning on campus is supported. His research focuses on looking at archival appraisal and acquisition, and critically assessing how these processes are carried out. Specifically, he is interested in how reflexivity, and a more nuanced participatory approach can be leveraged to create more inclusive archival processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n    \n\n\n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                \n\n\n\n<section class=\"w-screen px-6 cu-section cu-section--white cu-section--cards ml-offset-center md:px-8 lg:px-14\" data-attributes=\"&#x7B;&quot;numberOfPosts&quot;&#x3A;6,&quot;orderBy&quot;&#x3A;&quot;date&quot;,&quot;blockType&quot;&#x3A;&quot;cards&quot;,&quot;contentType&quot;&#x3A;&quot;post&quot;,&quot;currentPage&quot;&#x3A;1,&quot;blockBackground&quot;&#x3A;&quot;white&quot;,&quot;numberOfColumns&quot;&#x3A;3,&quot;showImages&quot;&#x3A;true,&quot;showDates&quot;&#x3A;true,&quot;showTimeToRead&quot;&#x3A;true,&quot;showExcerpts&quot;&#x3A;true,&quot;showFilter&quot;&#x3A;false,&quot;taxName&quot;&#x3A;&quot;category&quot;,&quot;moreButton&quot;&#x3A;&quot;none&quot;,&quot;categories&quot;&#x3A;&quot;532&quot;,&quot;tags&quot;&#x3A;&quot;&quot;&#x7D;\" data-page=\"2\">\n    <div class=\"space-y-6 cu-max-w-child-5xl  md:space-y-10 cu-prose-first-last\">\n\n                \n                \n        <div class=\"cu-loading hidden text-center mx-auto h-6 w-6 animate-spin rounded-full border-4 border-solid border-current border-r-transparent align-[-0.125em] motion-reduce:animate-[spin_1.5s_linear_infinite]\" role=\"status\">\n    <span class=\"!absolute !-m-px !h-px !w-px !overflow-hidden !whitespace-nowrap !border-0 !p-0 ![clip:rect(0,0,0,0)]\">\n        Loading&#8230;\n    <\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n                                        \n        <p class=\"cu-no-posts hidden\">\n            No\n            category\n\n            posts are available.\n        <\/p>\n\n                <div class=\"cu-column cu-component not-contained mx-auto grid max-w-5xl md:grid-cols-3 gap-6 md:gap-10\">\n                        \n                    \n\n<div class=\"not-prose cu-card rounded-lg @container md:max-w-xl flex flex-col gap-3 bg-white shadow-lg shadow-cu-black-100 group duration-300 ease-in hover:scale-[1.02] hover:shadow-cu-black-200\">\n\n            <figure class=\"mb-2 overflow-hidden rounded-t-lg\">\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/its-production.s3.amazonaws.com\/gutenberg\/cutheme-plugin\/images\/thumbs\/event-deadline.jpg\" alt=\"Pre-selected placeholder image\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/>\n        <\/figure>\n    \n    \n        <header class=\"flex flex-col gap-3  px-6 first:mt-6\">\n        <div class=\"flex flex-row w-full gap-1\">\n                        <time datetime=\"2019-10-23T20:00:00-04:00\" class=\"block italic text-sm text-cu-black-600\">\n        October 24, 2019\n    <\/time>\n\n                    <\/div>        \n        \n    \n    <h2 class=\"line-clamp-3 text-lg font-semibold text-cu-black @sm:md:text-xl leading-6 @sm:md:leading-8\">\n        Archive and Display: Five conversations on Lebanese forced migrations\n    <\/h2>\n\n            <\/header>\n\n\n            <div class=\"flex flex-col px-6 dark:text-white\">\n            <p class=\"text-base text-cu-black-700 dark:text-white \">\n                <span class=\"excerpt_part\">&#8230;otential to archive some of Al-Jana&rsquo;s work.
