It aims to gain a better understanding of the situation of Aboriginal Peoples in the field, reconstruct the keys to understanding and analyzing social phenomena, and document the initiatives introduced by the authorities and by the communities themselves, initiatives that all too often fall below the radar or are intentionally overlooked. The partnership proposes to examine the situation from a different angle, taking into consideration the recent changes in Aboriginal affairs to highlight the contributions and initiatives of Aboriginal Peoples to improving their own socioeconomic conditions; characterize the mechanisms of change and the leadership, governance, and public participation practices in rural and urban environments; and assess the social, economic, political, and cultural impact of the emergence of an Aboriginal civil society in Canada and around the world. Special emphasis will also be placed on the training of aboriginal students and research staff.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cEncouraging greater Aboriginal involvement in research is essential to our partnership, to help us better understand and document\u2014from the inside\u2014the rationale and development strategies in the areas of education, health care, social services, sustainable development, and social and economic development.
