Issues in Northern Governance and Development- Masters Degree Cluster

The research plan has been jointly proposed by the academics of the International Centre for Northern

Governance and Development and Cameco Corporation to meet the needs of industry, [federal/provincial]

government(s), and Northern Saskatchewan residents by researching key issues such as duty to consult, resource

sector competiveness, and Northern development strategies. The research results will assist wealth generation in

Northern Saskatchewan, while the collaboration and education itself will increase local research capacity in

Northern and Aboriginal communities. Students’ research will advance the academic understanding of

governance and development in a Northern context and will foster unprecedented collaboration among industry,

community, government, and researchers to solve real world issues in a timely and pragmatic way.
