Supporting Aboriginal Graduate Enhancement (SAGE) Vancouver presents the 14th Annual Indigenous Graduate Student Symposium: Transformation through Indigenous Research and Knowledge
The University and Community have shaped each other for some time now. This year the Indigenous Graduate Student Symposium (IGSS) explores transformation through Indigenous Research and Knowledge by thinking about how research interacts with community and how community shapes research.
