Afin de limiter l’impact environnemental de l’industrie de la construction, le recyclage des bétons sous forme de granulats recyclés pour la production de nouveau béton est une pratique de plus en plus courante. Néanmoins, il n’existe pas de marché pour les particules les plus fines, notamment en raison des réglementations strictes en vigueur. L’option proposée […]

Les forêts boréales, couvrant 10 % de la surface terrestre, sont essentielles à notre planète. Elles stockent du carbone, régulent le climat, fournissent des ressources comme le bois ou le papier, et abritent une riche biodiversité. Cependant, elles sont menacées par les changements climatiques, qui entraînent des feux de forêt plus fréquents et intenses, modifiant […]

In wanting to better understand how the intersections of gender identity and expression, sexuality, racialization and ethnicity are taught within mental health care, education and professional practice, the overall objective of this research project is to learn how LGBTQ+ identities are taught to and understood by psychology students in Brazil. Dr. Dhebar will learn intersectional […]

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 proposé vise à évaluer l’impact des sténoses, c’est-à-dire un rétrécissement de l’artère, sur la cognition, en particulier comment leur présence et leur localisation affectent divers domaines cognitifs, comme la mémoire et les habiletés motrices. L’étude se distingue par l’utilisation d’outils de caractérisation des artères développés à Sherbrooke, incluant un algorithme capable de détecter […]

New, greener methods for performing large-scale industrial chemical reactions are critical to decoupling the chemical industry from fossil fuels. Once such emerging category of reactions known as chemoenzymatic reactions are reliant on fossil fuel-derived solvents to run the reactions. Chemoenzymatic reactions are critical in making complex molecules essential in the pharmaceutical and materials industries. We […]

The one-year project will investigate the geological, geochemical and geophysical properties of three Rare Earth Element (REE) deposits in Québec. Each of the selected deposit is representative of a class of REE mineral deposits. The project will provide new insights in the origin of the three types of REE mineral deposits. This new understanding of […]

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 […]

This project aims to look at how Chinese teachers integrate environmental studies into their high school History classes. Throughout the course of this research, this project will also explore the strategies that Chinese teachers use to engage the students within their class. In a time of pressing environmental concerns, this project will provide greater insight […]
