What to expect? The workshop will begin with a introduction to Decolonized Research Methods (DRM) from Dr. Nora Angeles, Associate Professor at the School of Community and Regional Planning. Then, Dawn Hoogeveen, a postdoc at the Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability, will share her experiences using DRM in her research in a Q&A session. The event will close with Dawn Morrison, Founder, Chair and Coordinator of the B.C. Food Systems Working Group on Indigenous Food Sovereignty, sharing her experience straddling between the worlds of community organizing and academia and offering insights for engaging in this work.

You can also expect some delicious refreshments from Doughgirls.

Please RSVP to amber.heckelman@gmail.com. We will send a short list of suggested readings by Friday, Sept 8 so that everyone has the option of doing a bit of preparation leading up to the workshop.

Help us grow our network! This event is open to all and the Food Systems Network (FSN) would like to expand its reach to students in many faculties and disciplines across campus, so feel free to share this invite with friends.

In solidarity,

The FSN team — Amber, Dana, Tori, and Laura
