About this Event

Join us by the fireplace in the Morisset Library Lounge for a reflective conversation with Dr. Cornel Pewewardy (Comanche - Kiowa) and Dara Wawatie‑Chabot (Algonquin Anishinaabekwe) as we explore what the Indigenous Praxis Model (TIPM) teaches us about creating meaningful datasets.

This is a reflective exercise for anyone working with, or in proximity to, research data belonging to Indigenous communities or informed by Indigenous knowledge. What practical data management actions orient us toward systemic transformation?

The TIPM highlights the role of authentic relationships, mindfulness, and collective dreaming as decolonizing practices within knowledge systems. As Wawatie‑Chabot recently put it, “Having good intentions is a good start, but if you haven’t transformed your consciousness, you’ll still be wondering why no one wants to talk to you.”

This fireside chat is part of a Data literacy Research Institute speaker series with a focus on representation and equitable conditions in digital research infrastructure design.

  • This event will be held in English.
  • Location: 65 University Private - Morisset Library - 1st floor, room MRT 141


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Joignez-vous à nous près du foyer dans le Salon de la Bibliothèque Morisset pour explorer ce que nous enseigne le Modèle de praxis autochtone (TIPM – The Indigenous Praxis Model) au sujet de la création de jeux de données significatifs. Il s’agit d’un exercice réflexif qui s’adresse à toute personne travaillant avec — ou en proximité de — des données de recherche issues de ou porteuses de savoirs autochtones. Quelles actions concrètes de gestion des données peuvent nous orienter vers une transformation systémique?

Le TIPM met en avant le rôle des relations authentiques, de la pleine conscience et du rêve collectif en tant que pratiques décolonisantes au sein des systèmes de savoirs. Comme l’a récemment exprimé Wawatie‑Chabot : « Having good intentions is a good start, but if you haven’t transformed your consciousness, you’ll still be wondering why no one wants to talk to you. »

Ce feu de camp communautaire fait partie d’une série de conférences de l’Institut de recherche sur la littératie des données, qui porte une attention particulière à la représentation et aux conditions équitables dans la conception des infrastructures numériques de recherche.

  • Cet événement se déroulera en anglais.
  • Lieu : 65, rue Université privé - Bibliothèque Morisset, 1e étage, salle MRT 141
