We are looking for 4-6 youth/young people, ages 18–26, who are Indigenous or Racialized and are interested in participating in a 10-week research program rooted in leadership, creativity, and community engagement.
This program offers a supportive space for youth to explore and celebrate their identities while examining issues that impact their communities. Participants will choose a research topic that is meaningful to them, write an essay, and present their findings in a creative form (e.g., painting, short film, dance, or poetry). Through this experience, youth will build research and leadership skills while contributing to the ongoing work of the United Church be a more just, diverse, intercultural, courageous, and faithful community.
The research findings and creative projects will be shared with communities of faith through brief presentations led by the youth participants from September to December. As part of the research experience, participants must be available to travel to Norway House, Manitoba for 4–5 days (travel expenses fully subsidized), providing an opportunity for deeper learning, relationship-building, and community engagement. Dates will be provided closer to the program’s start date.
