Project overview
Upcoming conferences

Over the next three years, the IPG’s activities will involve a number of thematic conferences. The first of these will take place on June 10 and 11, 2009, in Val-d’Or, Quebec. The theme of this conference, organized by colleague-researchers Rod Macdonald (McGill) and Daniel Thomas (UQAT) is “territory, resources, goods, ideas, and indigenous economic independence”.

The other conference themes (dates to be confirmed) are:

  • The spirit and basis of negotiations: recognition, self-determination, and the meeting structure.
  • Customary law and the interaction between customary and state law: experience and conceptualization.
  • Governance practices, public policies, and program and service management.
  • Models of political participation and decision-making in indigenous communities.
  • Dynamics of inter-governance and federalism.
  • Political and legal alliances between indigenous peoples.
  • How to break out of colonialism: epistemological renewal in Aboriginal research.
