Mental health self-care journals provide a resource for people to build a variety of mental health skills, like resilience and self-compassion, and work through mental health challenges, like self-criticism. Despite the popularity of these resources, few, if any, provide any scientific basis for their effectiveness. The goal of this proposal is to (1) develop a […]

Archives can be powerful tools for decision-making, and reconnecting with one’s heritage, community, and history. However, archives also have a long history of reinforcing harmful stereotypes of Indigenous peoples through the inappropriate and inaccurate labeling, classification, and arrangement of materials.

Par contre, en s’attardant à la cohabitation des piétons, des automobilistes, des cyclistes et des véhicules de transport collectif, on réalise que c’est aux intersections et aux abords […]
