Research Clusters

Research clusters are groups of faculty and graduate students from different departments and disciplines with shared research interests. Research clusters undertake activities related to the mandate of the institute:

  • facilitating meaningful dialogue on an exploration of humanities-related themes across disciplinary boundaries;
  • fostering and promoting interdisciplinary research in the humanities;
  • demonstrating a willingness to seek external funding or collaborative research.

Successful groups are awarded up to $5,000 (subject to budgetary approval) annually.

Application deadline is April 30 of each year.

2025 - 2026 Research Clusters

  • Prairie Abolition

    The Prairie Abolition Research Cluster comes out of the urgent need to understand what prison abolition means on the prairies, on treaty land and occupied land where Indigenous people are disproportionately incarcerated. This Research Cluster regards prisons as a core part of the settler colonial project on the prairies. Working together, members will explore abolition within the specific context of Indigenous resistance, including movements and calls for land back. Part of this Research Cluster is also involved in tracing Indigenous practices and theories of justice and repair that exceed settler colonialism and its recent history.

  • Food Matters

    This cluster examines the role of food in diasporic communities through a number of different questions. In what ways, for instance, do ethnic groups maintain and evolve their gastronomic practices in North America? Are ethnic restaurants a way for patrons of different backgrounds to encounter foreign cultures or do such restaurants tend to become too “Americanized” to claim any representative authenticity? Furthermore, how do we understand authenticity in food narratives and what performances are required of those who would enact it for their own communities or for others? Food is experiential, which gives meaning to its preparation, presentation, and consumption. What structures are mobilized in popularizing foods that, to a Western eye, give a sense of the exotic? And how do peoples of diverse ethnic backgrounds speak of their food? What meanings, values, and memories come with these practices?

How to create a research cluster

Eligibility

  • Research clusters must contain at least two UM faculty members from the Faculty of Arts, ideally from two different departments.
  • Clusters involving students, members of the community or scholars at other universities are particularly welcome.
  • Proposals must be on a humanities theme (defined in terms of both content and methodology).
  • Clusters could re-apply for another year. They may receive UMIH funding for a maximum of three years in any consecutive six-year period. First- or second-year applications will be prioritized over third-year applications.

Selection criteria

The UMIH Board will act as the selection committee using the following criteria:

  • the qualifications of the applicants;
  • the sig­nificance of the proposed theme and its potential appeal to a wider humanities audience;
  • the proposed activities for the coming year;
  • the viability of the program and budget. 

Award

Two Research Clusters will be awarded up to $5,000 (subject to budgetary approval) annually in seed money, which can be used toward the costs of meetings, photocopying, visiting speakers, etc. Clusters will have access to space on the UMIH website, the UMIH blog and to room 409 Tier Building for meetings. Clusters will receive some administrative support. As part of their activities, each group will be required to plan at least one public event for the fall term and one for the winter term. 

How to apply

The following materials must be submitted:

  • a one-page curriculum vitae for each member of the cluster with one contact person clearly identified;
  • a maximum two-page proposal outlining the theme of the cluster and highlighting the original and interdisciplinary features of the proposal;
  • a tentative outline of the activities to be undertaken by the cluster with preference given to activities leading to a tangible scholarly event such as a workshop, conference, speaker series or publication;
  • a one-page budget with justifications and an indication of the potential sources of additional funds, if required.

Application materials will be handled in accordance with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (Manitoba).

All application materials are to be submitted to:

Brennen Siemens
MA student
History

Brennen Siemens is an MA student in the Department of History at the University of Manitoba/University of Winnipeg JMP. Her MA research explores how Low-German speaking Mennonites’ identity formation is rooted in their historical experiences with diaspora, immigration, nation, religion, community and collective memory. Her research is supported by an SSHRC CGS-M scholarship and a D.F. Plett Foundation Master’s Fellowship. She holds a BA and BEd from the University of Windsor. She uses oral histories in her research to explore how Low German speaking Mennonites in Southwestern Ontario construct their identity rooted in their experiences in the educational system, the political system and in the home. She presented at the 2026 CHA meeting in a panel on Negotiations of Identity in Marginalized North American Communities. In her time with the UMIH, she intends to complete her thesis research and continue to progress in her career in academia.

Linguistics

Maria Rodrigo-Tamarit is a PhD candidate in the Department of Linguistics (University of Manitoba, UofM) with a focus on sociolinguistics and psycholinguistic and holds an M.A. degree in Linguistics from the UofM, and a BA (Honours) in English Studies with a Minor in German Language and Literature from the Universitat de València (Spain). Her research explores bilingual individuals and communities, including linguistic attitudes towards French, English and code-switching varieties among bilinguals living in the province. For her doctoral thesis, she focuses on social factors that may influence how bilinguals process their languages. In particular, she examines the link between social domain and the language used in that domain. In addition to her own research projects, she has worked as a research assistant for a number of professors, at the UofM and the University of Winnipeg, and in several areas, including history, literature and the visual arts. She is also a mixed-methods researcher at the Centre for Social Science Research and Policy, and a sessional instructor in the department of French, Spanish and Italian. Overall, her academic training, graduate research in the social sciences with a focus on the social and cultural aspects of language and linguistic communities and her professional experience in the humanities is highly interdisciplinary in nature. It is precisely this interdisciplinarity that she wishes to strengthen during her fellowship at the Institute.

Undergraduate student interns

The UMIH student internship program started in 2020. The internship has two spots available for Faculty of Arts undergraduate students. The program’s focus is to foster students' connection to the UMIH research community both on and off campus, support their research and writing and train them in an array of transferrable skills.

The 2026-2027 Undergraduate Student Interns are Emma Sciarretta (History) and Abbey Fedora (ETFM).

Current interns

Emma Sciarretta
UIMH Undergraduate Student Intern
History

Emma is in her fourth and final year of the History Honours program, with an interest in late medieval and early modern history. When she has completed all the readings for her seminars, Emma enjoys reading in her free time as well — literature, mystery, fiction, and of course more history. Aside from adding to her never ending ‘books to buy’ list, Emma loves to bake for her family and is always searching for the best new restaurants in Winnipeg.

Abbey Fedora
UMIH Undergraduate Student Intern
English, Theatre, Film & Media

Abbey is a fifth-year student pursuing an English Honours degree here at the University of Manitoba. Abbey has an academic interest in the Victorian era and enjoys learning about the past through observing and engaging in material culture practices. Abbey specifically enjoys adapting Victorian-era-inspired crafts, such as hair work and basketry, using modern-day materials. When she is not studying or crafting using unruly materials, you may find her watching horror movies or getting coffee with friends.
