About this position
The University of Calgary is seeking three highly motivated graduate students for research on Indigenous Planetary Well-being and Indigenous contributions to addressing environmental challenges. Students will be based at the University of Calgary and may undertake significant field work with collaborators and partners across Ontario and Alberta.
The opportunities span three connected projects. The Indigenous Urban Climate Action project examines Indigenous climate action in cities, including urban land stewardship, climate policy and governance, Indigenous laws and rights, and relationships between urban and rural Indigenous-led climate action. It also involves Indigenous urban climate assessment, community priorities, interviews, workshops, learning circles, land-based engagement, and youth engagement.
The Indigenous Planetary Well-being project focuses on collaboratively developing the concept of Indigenous planetary well-being, community-based well-being frameworks, and indicators informed by Indigenous knowledge, language, rights, laws, and values. The work includes community-engaged research, learning circles, land-based activities, knowledge mobilization, and engagement with communities and youth.
The Indigenous Knowledge, Languages and Land-based Practices and Planetary Well-being project supports the revitalization of Indigenous languages, knowledge, laws, and land-based practices. Students may co-develop community-led land-based activities and youth or multigenerational knowledge-sharing gatherings, while working with Elders, traditional knowledge holders, practitioners, and youth to strengthen relationships to the Earth.
Across the projects, students will develop experience in Indigenous research methodologies, qualitative and community-engaged research, knowledge mobilization, and community engagement. Possible activities include interviews, workshops, learning circles, multimedia knowledge sharing, speaker series, webinars, and community- or youth-focused initiatives. The research team is led by Canada Excellence Research Chair Dr. Deborah McGregor, with graduate admission pathways involving Geography, Earth, Energy, and the Environment, or the Transdisciplinary Graduate program.
Funding details
Salary or financial support is listed as commensurate/negotiable. Selected applicants will be supported by the research team in applying for admission to the University of Calgary; no specific stipend, tuition coverage, or guaranteed funding amount is stated.
