Conference Presentation- Indigenous Community-Centered Research: Navigating ethics, cultural protocols, & relationships

Very appreciative of the opportunity to present the Kahnawà:ke Education Center’s (KEC) Research Policy & Code of Ethics with the McGill community! This panel explored the process of co-writing the new policy for the KEC. My co-panelists (& policy co-writers) were Kahtehrón:ni Stacey & Daniella Birlain D’Amico. The three of us are graduate (PhD) students at McGill in the Department of Integrated Studies in Education. We not only came together to co-write this policy and help launch it but we also supported each other throughout the pandemic with our individual research.

This annual conference is organized by the Education Graduate Students Society (EGSS) at McGill University as an opportunity for students to share and learn from each other. This year’s conference theme was: Challenge, Change & Resilience.
