Our community
Our department has a strong relationship with our provincial government and other academic units on campus such as the Global Institutes for Water and Food Security, the Indigenous Land Management Institute, and the Sustainable Beef Systems Research Group. These relationships will connect you and your research with others in related fields.
We also have a strong tie to the National Aboriginal Land Managers Association and Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada. These relationships allow us to partner with Indigenous peoples locally and across the country.
