Description
On November 12, 2025 , the Technoscience Research Unit (TRU) will launch the Indigenous Science, Technology, and Environments Studies Research Hub (ISTES Hub) at the University of Toronto.
The ISTES Hub supports the unique needs of Indigenous researchers, recognizing that Indigenous science embraces both traditional knowledge and emergent technologies, from arts-based methods to computation. Through events, space, materials, research opportunities, and knowledge sharing, the ISTES Hub aspires to expand the support for ISTES community and research on our own terms.
Indigenous researchers undertake science, technology, and environmental research differently, drawing forward traditional forms of knowledge and practices, bringing critical understanding to conventional colonial research practices, and emphasizing commitments to community service and requiring distinct methods of consultation and governance, data sovereignty, obligations to land, traditional teachings, and mixed methods.
The ISTES Hub is located at the Indigenous-led Technoscience Research Unit at the University of Toronto/ We welcome all Indigenous researchers—faculty, graduate students, undergraduate students, and community-based researchers—to connect with us.
Please join us on Wednesday, November 12 from 2-4 PM for light refreshments and to check-out our new space!
