Partners

Ongomiizwin partners are a group of community- and university-based Indigenous and ally scholars and leaders from a consortium of three Indigenous organizations and four universities in Manitoba, all committed to improving access to meaningful university-based opportunities to First Nation, Métis and Inuit trainees.

Our commitment

Ongomiizwin – Research is dedicated to nurturing and advancing relationships through ongoing collaboration and regular meetings with the researchers and directors of the four centers.

This commitment ensures ongoing relationship building, identifies future collaboration opportunities, enhances mutual support, and ensures that our research aligns with the needs and goals of the represented communities.

Furthermore, we actively foster relationships and collaborations with other Indigenous communities not formally affiliated with the centres. We embrace principles of solidarity, mutual support, and autonomy to guide these relationships.

Community partners

Ongomiizwin – Research has long-standing relationships with the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (AMC), the Manitoba Metis Federation (MMF) and the Manitoba Inuit Association (MIA), each of which operates their own community-based research centres.
