Student Network Research Assistants
Our goal is to create a network of Indigenous community members, high school, undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students that will be trained to complete effective work with Indigenous communities to a high standard of academic excellence. At each stage of our work, we will train students, particularly Indigenous students, and highly qualified personnel in First Nation communities to undertake research projects under the supervision of community leaders, teachers, and academics.
