Congratulations to Dr. Shannon Bredin, Associate Professor in the School of Kinesiology, for being awarded a $45,300 SSHRC Indigenous Research Capacity and Reconciliation Connection Grant. This grant will support a series of community-led, co-created activities designed to gain understanding of how we can help shape and transform the teaching and learning of Indigenous knowledges, perspectives, and pedagogies within higher education settings, with the goal of contributing to the transformation of higher education curriculum and teaching approaches. The findings from this work will result in a position paper to be shared at a national dialogue event scheduled for March 2019 supported by the Tri-Council funding agencies (SSHRC, NSERC, and CIHR).
