CES Ontario has two fantastic new opportunities to learn about the intersection of culture, identity, and evaluation. Please join us for both these sessions, coming fall 2022:

Webinar: Decolonizing Data: Unsettling Converations About Research
When: September 16, 11:30 AM - 12:30 PM
With: Dr. Jacqueline Quinless and Dr. Jeff Kanohaildoh
Cost: free!

Reflect on how to work with Indigenous knowledge systems and worldviews in a respectful way to address health inequities. The presenters will draw on their experience working across research contexts - including evaluation research - to share knowledge for decolonizing research, including upholding data governance and methods for taking a respectful and carefully nuanced approach to two-eyed seeing called Responsive Research and the TRAC method. This presentation is for anyone interested in or seeking effective frameworks for decolonization and Indigenization in evaluation frameworks.
