Register for this first event in a two-part conversation, happening on April 18, 2024, in LMX 387.
Overview
This first event of a two-part conversation on knowledge mobilization and Indigenous methodologies will focus how Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers can honour knowledge mobilization in their research processes. The second conversation, happening on May 2, honours ethical uses and best practices of Indigenous methodologies in educational research that carry key foundations of knowledge mobilization processes. Both conversations weave into each other and will be presented by doctoral candidate Madelaine McCracken.
