PhD Students
Emily Bingeman听is a PhD student in Philosophy at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播. She holds a BA in Fine Arts and Philosophy (University of Guelph) and an MA in Philosophy (新加坡六合彩开奖直播). Emily鈥檚 research focuses on understanding the relationship between power and knowledge practices, and, in particular, how marginalization of a social group can be connected to marginalization of that group鈥檚 knowledge practices. Emily鈥檚 aim is to gain an understanding of how the knowledge systems of the four Fish-WIKS partner communities are different from, and similar to, the Western knowledge systems that dominate the public discourse in Canada. Through this research Emily hopes to contribute to the project of developing an action plan to integrate Indigenous knowledge into fisheries management in Canada, and to delineate the necessity of this project not only for environmental conservation but also for working towards reconciliation between Indigenous and settler peoples in Canada.

Nicole Latulippe听(Ontario) completed her BA in Geography of Regional Planning and International Development at Nipissing University, her MA in Geography and International Development Studies at the University of Guelph, and is currently working on a PhD in Geography at the University of Toronto.
