An interdisciplinary research centre that broadly focuses on the study of Northeastern North America, and is organized around a community-engaged research model as a decolonial research practice. (Visual art by Wolastoqey artist Emma Hassencahl-Perley.
We spent an excellent weekend with Elders, community members, and scholars thinking about what it means to do engaged research in "Atlantic Canada" from the margins created by settler colonialism and white supremacy.

It was grounding, challenging, exciting, and we can't wait for what comes next.
