September 22, 2020

This fall, CERi is excited to announce the second cohort of participants in the Faculty-Student Research Program.

There are a total of 10 research projects that are being funded through the program reflecting a rich diversity of collaborations between ԰AV faculty or graduate students and their respective community partners.

Participants from within the university stem from seven different departments or faculties including Urban Studies, Health Sciences, Gerontology, Linguistics and the School of Resource and Environment.

They are working with community partners from the Greater Vancouver region as well as remoted communities in British Columbia. Areas of research include the health concerns of older adults living with HIV, sustainable management of salmon fisheries in the Koeye River of the Central Coast of BC, and creating the tools to teach Xaad Kil, a critically endangered First Nations language traditionally spoken in Haida Gawaii, to younger generations.

The program provides ԰AV students and faculty with a $5,000 grant to support their community-engaged research. The grant is intended for research completed during one academic term. To qualify, eligible applicants must demonstrate a working relationship with a community partner and indicate how the research would benefit or positively impact the community.
