The project aims to document existing climate research partnerships between UBC and Indigenous communities, collectives, and organizations in the Downtown Eastside and understand the strengths and weaknesses of such partnerships as they already exist. The project goals were met through an extensive desktop review and semi-structured interviews with UBC researchers and representatives from community organizations.
