Saskatoon, Canada University of Saskatchewan Full time

**Indigenous Platform Coordinator**:
**Description**:
The Indigenous Platform Coordinator will work closely with Dr Alexandra King (Nipissing First Nation; Cameco Chair in Indigenous Health and Wellness, University of Saskatchewan) and co-leads Renée Masching (Six Nations of the Grand River, Seven Directions Consulting) and Carrielynn Lund (Métis woman with lived experience of hepatitis C; DRUM & SASH Project Coordinator, Pewaseskwan). The Indigenous platform is part of the Canadian Network on Hepatitis C (CanHepC), a national collaborative research and training network on HCV funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Public Health Agency of Canada. As part of a commitment to ensure Indigenous engagement and leadership in the Network, the aim of the Indigenous Platform is to strengthen Indigenous participation in and leadership of CanHepC by providing robust support for Indigenous ways of knowing, being, doing and decolonization. The Indigenous Platform Coordinator will work side by side with CanHepC and with Indigenous communities, leaders and Elders towards HCV elimination goals.

The specific objectives of the Indigenous Platform are to:
1) ensure Indigenous research governance principles are included in CanHepC’s cohorts and projects;
2) engage meaningfully with Indigenous people in Canada with lived/living experience of hepatitis C, including existing networks and communities of interest working with First Nations, Métis and Inuit with lived/living hepatitis C experience (e.g., Action Hepatitis Canada) to operationalize and ensure CanHepC’s commitment to reconciliation; cultural safety; and equity, diversity and inclusion; as well as thoughtful and reflexive consideration of Network language, processes and structures to remove sources of unconscious bias;
3) articulate a formal community accountability framework supporting low-barrier participation, that is reflective and responsive to Indigenous community needs related to research in collaboration with Indigenous community, researchers, Elders and people with lived/living experience;
4) work with members of the CanHepC National Indigenous Roadmap project team to collaborate with and consult Indigenous Working Groups from regional CanHepC Roadmap teams to create a National Roadmap to guide the creation and implementation of guiding principles specific to Indigenous people with hepatitis C.

**Nature of Work**: Housed at the University of Saskatchewan within Pewaseskwan (the Indigenous Wellness Research Group) and under the supervision of Dr. Alexandra King, Ms. Renée Masching and Ms Carrielynn Lund, the Indigenous Platform Coordinator will be responsible for coordinating the activities and implementing the work plan of the CanHepC Indigenous Platform to attain the aims outlined above.

**Accountabilities**:

- Act as liaison to increase meaningful and authentic Indigenous participation in and leadership of research through the implementation of Indigenous research governance principles and a formal community accountability framework.
- Ensure the implementation, evaluation and interconnection between Pewaseskwan, the CanHepC Scientific Committee and an Indigenous HCV Community Guiding Circle.
- Work to enhance equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI), and Indigenous-specific training and education opportunities for all members of the CanHepC network.
- Provide research support for Pewaseskwan on CanHepC related initiatives, particularly the CanHepC National Indigenous Roadmap project.
- Assist with developing, preparing and finalizing a broad range of written materials, including strategic documents, reports, literature reviews, funding proposals, both independently and in collaboration with the Pewaseskwan team, key stakeholders and partners.
- Offer guidance to entrench high quality in studies as per regulations stipulated by the Tri-Council and other granting agencies, Research Ethics Boards, and other oversight and regulatory bodies, and uplift Indigenous research philosophies and methodologies, including data sovereignty.
- Develop strong, collaborative relationships within the communities in Saskatchewan and Manitoba with Pewaseskwan, as well as nationally with CanHepC and internationally overall, to meet the Platform activities and project goals.
- Participate in relevant committees at the organizational, regional and national levels.
