The Canada Research Chair on <\/a>Indigenous<\/a> Women’s Issues<\/a> and the DIALOG Indigenous Peoples’ Research and Knowledge Network<\/a> announce the creation of a Joyce Echaquan Scholarship amounting $36,000 over two years.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Chief Scientist’s Office<\/a> and the Fonds de recherche du Qu\u00e9bec<\/a> have decided to support this initiative by providing an additional scholarship of the same amount and under the same terms and conditions for a second indigenous student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A concrete and promising initiative<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Carole L\u00e9vesque<\/a>, professor at the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS)<\/a> and director of the DIALOG Network, and Suzy Basile<\/a>, professor at the Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec en Abitibi-T\u00e9miscamingue (UQAT)<\/a> and chairholder of the Canada Research Chair on Indigenous Women’s Issues, initiated this scholarship project. Four months after the tragic death of Joyce Echaquan, they decided to join forces to create a scholarship for an indigenous master\u2019s student, with the support of Ms. Echaquan’s family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Professors Suzy Basile (UQAT) and Carole L\u00e9vesque (INRS) are at the origin of this project.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe idea arose from a desire to take action and contribute to the proposals set out in the Principle de Joyce<\/em>. After working with the family, the creation of this scholarship seems as a means of highlighting the issues and challenges faced by indigenous women, as well as contributing to the research training of indigenous student.,\u201d  <\/p>Professor Suzy Basile<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt INRS, for more than 20 years, the DIALOG Network has focused on the collaborative development, transmission and sharing of knowledge among researchers, students and indigenous knowledge owners,\u201d says Professor L\u00e9vesque. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs part of its many initiatives to create an innovative and inspiring learning ecosystem for its students, the DIALOG Network is now partnering with the Canada Research Chair on Indigenous Women’s Issues to offer a scholarship to an indigenous woman in honour of Ms. Joyce Echaquan, whose untimely death in September 2020 left all of Quebec in confusion and fear.\u201d<\/p>Professor Carole L\u00e9vesque<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The scholarship will be awarded on a competitive selection process to an indigenous student who will begin her master\u2019s degree in the Fall of 2021. The theme of her work must be related to the call to action and commitment, as defined in the Principle de Joyce<\/a><\/em>, a brief presented to the Government of Quebec by the Atikamekw Council of Manawan<\/a> and the Council of the Atikamekw Nation<\/a> in November 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applicants must be enrolled in one of the programs at the Universit\u00e9 du Qu\u00e9bec en Abitibi-T\u00e9miscamingue (UQAT) or the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) to be eligible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The complete file must be sent to the DIALOG Network no later than June 30, 2021 at reseaudialog@ucs.dev.inrs.ca<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
