This study aims to investigate the influence of same-sex sexual behaviour on reproductive success among Rwenzori Angolan colobus, a primate subspecies characterized by a multilevel social structure like that of early humans. Despite the supposed evolutionary paradox of same-sex sexual behaviour, given its perceived costliness and lack of direct reproductive output, recent research suggests it […]

This project aims to create engaging learning activities and a digital interface to help different groups of people understand and talk about important social issues like racism, ageism, cultural differences, and generational divides. The project will focus on four main groups: young children, high school or university students, community members, and workplace teams. By developing […]

Dr. Dhebar will learn intersectional […]

Automatic mixing is a field of music technology research looking to automate sound engineering processes. The project will look to expand the field, using machine learning techniques to analyze the relationship of the subjective sound engineering techniques of audio engineers. From this, a unique and quantifiable data set will be we gathered in order to […]

The objective of this project is to investigate policy challenges identified by Munk’s Ukrainian partners and identify innovative solutions based on consultation with Munk and KSE faculty, extant research, and available evidence. 6 KSE-Munk students will prepare 10-page policy briefs addressing these challenges. Students will present their briefs at a student conference in April 2025. […]

Le projet cherche à étudier comment les projets de dynamisation des cœurs de collectivités (centre-ville, noyau villageois, cœur de quartier) peuvent favoriser l’inclusion et l’équité dans les cœurs de collectivités et engendrer des retombées positives pour l’ensemble de chaque milieu. Plus particulièrement, il vise à identifier les stratégies à intégrer dans les projets de (re)dynamisation […]

A central research objective is to offer a unifying narrative and framework for undertaking and critiquing economic and financial analysis. Building on the first principles of dynamic systems, a critical focal point is the continuity of the shifting evolutionary interface between microeconomic and macroeconomic mechanisms, along with associated bidirectional impacts. In simple terms, microeconomics continuously […]

The proposed project, “Nature and Nurture: A Comparative Study of Environmental Education in China and Canada,” aims to explore how Environmental Education (EE) is implemented within educational systems in both countries. Through observing and analyzing various aspects—such as the curriculum, teacher engagement, and community involvement—the project will identify best practices and challenges in fostering environmental […]

The overview of the Globalink research project seeks to examine and discuss the use of creative pedagogy in Chinese and Canadian classrooms for grades 1-6 and 7-9, focusing on cross-curricular learning. One objective is to compare student engagement and behaviour. The Ontario curriculum offers many opportunities for the integration of subjects, and we aim to […]

This research project will explore how environmental education (EE) in kindergarten classrooms can build lifelong habits of environmental stewardship by comparing practices in Ontario, Canada, and China. Using the framework of the Reciprocal Learning Program, the study highlights how cultural exchange can improve teaching methods and outcomes in both regions. By examining daily routines and […]
