Ărramăt’s Global Transformation Pathways: Co-leads
Our Ărramăt Co-leads provide leadership and create spaces through the Global Transformational Pathways to bring researchers together to support each other and amplify research results. They do this by Mâmawi-atoskîwin – all working together.

- Support the development of methodological toolboxes, webinars, and resoureces for the Indigenous-led place-based projects (ILPBPs);
- Collaborative synthesize research with Indigenous governments and organizations in ways that can inform policy and institutional change.
