Le Festival de Lanaudière est une organisation d’envergure au Canada. Rassemblant des dizaines de milliers de spectateurs depuis 1978, ce festival a pour mission de rassembler les gens de partout autour de la musique classique. C’est dans cette perspective d’engagement dans la collectivité que s’inscrit mon projet de recherche qui suivra les débuts du développement […]

Youth concussion rates are rising across Canada. In response, efforts are being made to enable the recovery of injured youth. However, little is known about what recovery ‘is’ (how youth understand their own recovery, what constitutes a ‘good’ recovery). This omission represents a major gap in knowledge of youth concussion. This research project will partner […]

Self-help and self-care products are becoming ever more popular. However, they are usually distributed through print media, hence, limiting their intended reach.

The app will be developed with the help of […]

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. Alternatively, community archives (i.e., archives controlled, developed, and managed by a community, instead of a […]
