Thunder Bay, Canada Lakehead University Full time

**Lakehead University (Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada)**

**Tenure-Track Assistant or Associate Appointment**

**Tier 2 Canada Research Chair in Indigegogy**

Restricted Hiring to Indigenous Women and Indigenous Gender Minorities*

**Lakehead University and our Community**

Lakehead University is recognized as one of Canada’s top research-intensive universities in its category for the last decade (Research Info$ource). Aligned with our Strategic Plan, Research Plan, CRC Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan, and Institutional EDI Action Plan, we are actively recruiting outstanding scholars to enhance and grow our research and innovation capacity. Situated in the diverse and multicultural communities of Thunder Bay and Orillia, our unique campuses and their locations inspire us to discover and innovate in exciting and non-traditional ways.

Lakehead is a comprehensive university with a reputation for innovative programs and cutting-edge research. Our campuses are located in Thunder Bay on the traditional lands of the Fort William First Nation, Signatory to the Robinson Superior Treaty of 1850 and in Orillia on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, and Rama First Nation. Lakehead University acknowledges the history that many nations hold in the areas around our campuses and is committed to a relationship with Métis and Inuit and First Nations peoples.

**The Faculty and Keewatinase (the Department of Indigenous Education)**
The appointment of this Canada Research Chair will be in the Faculty of Education; this opportunity is available at the Thunder Bay campus. For information about the Faculty of Education, please visit our website.

Keewatinase, the Department of Indigenous Education, is undergoing a transformational process to better reflect traditional Indigenous ways of doing, being, and seeing. Offering programs in elementary and secondary school teacher education, as well as one of the longest-running Indigenous language teacher programs in the country, Keewatinase believes in ‘learning by doing’ and becoming a model for delivering Indigenous teacher education programs within its working culture. The CRC position will work closely with Keewatinase faculty and staff members. Their work will be essential to shaping the direction of the KIE department. Their research should be collaborative, community based and community-led, and relational in nature to ensure they not only speak the words of Indigenization and decolonization, but actively demonstrate their commitment to Indigenous ways of doing, being, and seeing.

Although we focus on Indigenous communities in the regions around our two campuses in Orillia and Thunder Bay, we also recognize the connection with, and between, Indigenous peoples around the world. Lakehead International has facilitated relationships with universities in other countries that demonstrate a keen interest in Indigenous issues including Australia, Mexico, Norway, and New Zealand. The CRC should consider international partnerships/initiatives as a component of their research agenda.

**Requirements**:

- be excellent emerging world-class researchers who have demonstrated research creativity;
- have demonstrated the potential to achieve international recognition in their fields in the next five to ten years;
- As chairholders, have the potential to attract, develop and retain excellent trainers, students and future Indigenous researchers; and
- be proposing an original, innovative research program of the highest quality.

CRCs at Lakehead University are appointed and governed by the provisions of the Lakehead University Faculty Association Collective Agreement. For the duration of the CRC, the CRC will be given a reduced teaching load in order to dedicate the majority of their time to research, be provided with a start-up grant, an annual research grant, and research space appropriate for the proposed CRC’s program of research.

**Application Deadline and Process**
- ** A detailed curriculum vitae (CV)** (any format) that provides a clear sense of your Indigenous community-based work and traditional knowledge; your scholarly and professional development via your education and your research activities and outcomes; your contributions to making Indigegogy a more equitable and inclusive discipline through committee work, community engagement, social media, and advocacy.;
- ** Research Statement **(up to 6 pages) that describes your proposed CRC program of research using CRC section headings (page limitation excludes the summary and list of references) and Indigenous community involvement (see link provided (under the Nomination heading) for further instructions on requirements for each section and link for Lakehead University’s Strategic Research Plan);
- ** Teaching statement** (up to 2 pages) and a dossier of syllabi and other evidence, if available. These must demonstrate how you engage, encourage, and develop the learning capacity of students entering high
