Message from CIHR President - Analysis of Feedback on the CIHR Design
Discussion Document
It's been five months since the release of the Design Discussion
Document describing the proposed reforms to CIHR's Open Suite of
Programs and peer review process. During the consultation period, the
research community and our stakeholders provided us with many
thoughtful, frank and candid comments, as well as constructive
suggestions. All individual comments and questions received were
captured and are being analyzed to help inform the design.
I am pleased to announce the publication of the What CIHR Heard:
Analysis of Feedback on the Design Discussion Document. This document
presents a summary of the feedback received through a number of
consultation methods (face-to-face meetings including institution town
halls, an online survey, discussion forum, emails and letters received
from the community).
The Feedback Analysis Report is available on the CIHR website along
with a set of questions and answers.
We would ask that you forward any questions or comments you receive to
Roadmap-Plan.Strategique@cihr-irsc.gc.ca. If you are contacted by the
media, please direct them to David Coulombe, CIHR's media specialist,
at mediarelations@cihr-irsc.gc.ca or 613-941-4563. Should you have any
questions, please contact your Roadmap Implementation Network member.
I would like to thank you in advance for your continued support for
this important initiative.

Master's/PhD positions in human rights, branding, and place (second posting)
Funded Master's and PhD Research Positions in the Geography/Sociology of
urban branding, human rights, and place
Seeking students for January, 2013 (start dates are flexible)
A research team led by Drs. Jeff Masuda (Department of Environment and
Geography, University of Manitoba), Sonia Bookman (Department of Sociology,
University of Manitoba), and Audrey Kobayashi (Department of Geography,
Queen's University) is seeking qualified graduate students interested in
research in the areas of urban geography or urban sociology.
Student research will contribute to a three-year SSHRC-funded project
entitled "Revitalizing Japantown? A unifying exploration of human rights,
branding, and place in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside." The project aims to
chronicle the lasting legacy of human rights activism in the neighbourhood
as set within the context of its ongoing sociospatial transformation.
Through a combination of archival reclamation, community dialogues, and
arts-aligned knowledge mobilization, we seek to contribute a human rights
narrative to ongoing urban branding schemes taking place amidst the
neighbourhood's revitalization.
We will fund students interested in pursuing studies in the disciplinary
areas of historical geography/sociology, urban geography/sociology, and/or
cultural geography and with a substantive focus on one or more of the
following topics: revitalization, social justice, urban branding, human
rights, participatory action research, and arts-aligned research. Depending
on students experience and interest, enrolment will be in either a graduate
program in Geography or Sociology, with supervision tailored to student
interests.
Applicants must have an appropriate background in Human Geography,
Sociology, or a related discipline that meets the entrance requirements of
the graduate programs of our respective institutions. Applicants with
previous research experience or interest in participatory action
research and/or archival research will be particularly competitive as will
those who are capable of contributing to the project deliverables while
also articulating independent but complementary research goals,
particularly at the PhD level.
At least two Master's level students will be guaranteed a minimum stipend
of $12,000 for their first year of study. One PhD student will
be guaranteed a minimum stipend of $16,000 per year for the first year of
study. Funding for subsequent years will be contingent on
performance and on receiving external scholarships. Numerous entrance
awards, scholarships, and assistantships are also available for
competitive applicants.
The deadline for a January, 2013 admission to the Faculty of Graduate
Studies at the University of Manitoba is September 15. Interested
applicants should send a two-page letter of interest and updated CV for
review by the research team no later than August 31st. Positions will be
filled as exceptional applications are received, therefore interested
students are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. Applicants from
geography are encouraged to contact Dr. Jeff Masuda (

WEBINAR
Looking at the Policy, Program and Practice Landscape and Related Research
Needs: A Feature on Aboriginal Peoples' Health
Le texte français suit le texte anglais.
The Canadian Institutes of Health Research, (CIHR), through the Pathways
to Health Equity for Aboriginal Peoples Signature Initiative is pleased to
be hosting a webinar bringing together policy makers and researchers to
discuss priorities for population health intervention research in
Aboriginal peoples' health to inform policy, program and practice
decisions.
The webinar will focus on the notion of "natural experiments" that could
benefit from researcher expertise and involvement; that is to say, rapidly
unfolding programs, policies and resource distribution approaches that
have been initiated by others (e.g., policy makers) and have the potential
to impact health and health equity at the population level.
Researchers are looking for priorities in policy, program, and practice
that are important to examine using the CIHR Population Health
Intervention Research funding tool. An overview of this and other CIHR
funding mechanisms for this type of research will be provided.
Participants will hear from Carol Hopkins, Executive Director of the
National Native Addictions Partnership Foundation Carol has excellent
knowledge of the policy landscape. A moderated question and answer period
for participants will follow.
CIHR-Institute of Population and Public Health staff will also be
available to answer questions about the Institute's latest funding
opportunity to support population health intervention research as well as
other funding tools that CIHR has to offer.
If you have any questions about the webinar, please contact Kim Gaudreau,
Associate, Strategic Initiatives, CIHR-Institute of Population and Public
Health, at kim.gaudreau@cihr-irsc.gc.ca.
If you have any questions about the Pathways to Health Equity for
Aboriginal Peoples Signature Initiative, please contact Paul
Bélanger, Assistant Director, CIHR-Institute of Aboriginal Peoples'
Health, at paul.belanger@cihr-irsc.gc.ca.
The webinar will be held on Friday, August 17th at 1:00pm EDT. We invite
you to RSVP for the webinar at this website.
Pathways to Health Equity for Aboriginal Peoples Signature
Initiative Pathways to Health Equity for Aboriginal Peoples'
overall goal is to develop a better understanding of how to
implement and scale up interventions and programs that will address First
Nations, Inuit and Métis (Aboriginal Peoples') health inequities in
four priority areas—suicide, obesity, tuberculosis,
and oral health. This initiative is co-led by the CIHR Institutes of
Aboriginal Peoples' Health; Gender and Health; and Population and
Public Health. Example of a funded population health
intervention research project The Safe Drinking Water for First Nations
Act was implemented across Canada in 2010 to regulate
drinking water and waste water treatment. This legislation is being
studied for its impact on health equity for members of First Nations
communities (led by Cheryl Waldner).

État actuel des politiques, des programmes et des pratiques et
besoins connexes en matière de recherche : pleins feux sur la
santé des Autochtones
Dans le cadre de l'initiative phare Voies de l'équité en
santé pour les Autochtones, les Instituts de recherche en
santé du Canada (IRSC) sont heureux de présenter un
webinaire destiné aux responsables des politiques et aux chercheurs
visant à établir les priorités en matière de
recherche interventionnelle en santé des populations chez les
Premières Nations en vue d'orienter les décisions sur les
politiques, les programmes et les pratiques.
Le webinaire sera axé sur les « expériences naturelles
», où la participation et l'expertise des chercheurs
pourraient s'avérer utiles, c'est-à-dire les programmes,
politiques et approches de distribution des ressources mis en place par
d'autres intervenants (p. ex., les responsables des politiques), qui
évoluent rapidement et pourraient avoir un impact sur la
santé et l'équité en santé à
l'échelle de la population.
Les chercheurs tâchent d'établir des priorités de
recherche sur les politiques, les programmes et les pratiques afin de les
étudier grâce à l'outil de financement des IRSC en
recherche interventionnelle en santé des populations. L'animateur
présentera également un aperçu des mécanismes
de financement des IRSC pouvant servir à soutenir ce type de
recherche.
Le webinaire comprendra une présentation de Carol Hopkins,
directrice générale de la Fondation autochtone nationale de
partenariat pour la lutte contre les dépendances, qui connaît
très bien l'état actuel des politiques. Cette
présentation sera suivie d'une période de questions. Des
membres du personnel de l'Institut de la santé publique et des
populations des IRSC seront également sur place pour
répondre aux questions des participants au sujet des
dernières possibilités de financement en recherche
interventionnelle en santé des populations de l'Institut et des
autres outils de financement des IRSC.
Si vous avez des questions au sujet du webinaire, S.V.P. contactez Kim
Gaudreau, Associée, Initiatives stratégiques, Institut de la
santé publique et des populations des IRSC à
kim.gaudreau@cihr-irsc.gc.ca.
Si vous avez des questions au sujet de l'Initiative phare Voies de
l'équité en santé pour les Autochtones, S.V.P.
contactez Paul Bélanger, Directeur Adjoint, l'Institut de la
santé des Autochtones des IRSC à
paul.belanger@cihr-irsc.gc.ca.
Le webinaire se tiendra le vendredi 17 août à 13:00 HAE. Nous
vous invitons à vous inscrire au webinaire à ce site web.
Remarque : Le webinaire sera seulement offert en anglais. Toutefois, le
personnel de l'ISPP des IRSC répondra avec plaisir aux questions et
commentaires en français.
Initiative phare Voies de l'équité en santé
pour les Autochtones Le but général de l'initiative Voies
de l'équité en santé pour les
Autochtones est de mieux comprendre comment mettre en œuvre et
reproduire à grande échelle des interventions et des
programmes qui auront pour effet de réduire les
disparités en matière de santé chez les
Autochtones (Premières Nations, Inuit et Métis) dans quatre
domaines prioritaires : le suicide, l'obésité, la
tuberculose et la santé buccodentaire. Cette initiative
est codirigée par trois instituts des IRSC : l'Institut de
la santé des Autochtones, l'Institut de la santé des femmes
et des hommes et l'Institut de la santé publique et
des populations. Exemple d'un projet de recherche
interventionnelle en santé des populations financé
par les IRSC En 2010, le projet de loi S-11, Loi sur la
salubrité de l'eau potable des Premières Nations, a
été déposé en vue de réglementer le
traitement de l'eau potable et des eaux usées. Ce projet de
recherche dirigé par Cheryl Waldner vise à
étudier l'impact potentiel de cette loi sur
l'équité en santé chez les membres des
Premières Nations.

santé du Canada (IRSC) sont heureux de présenter un
webinaire destiné aux responsables des politiques et aux chercheurs
visant à établir les priorités en matière de
recherche interventionnelle en santé des populations chez les
Premières Nations en vue d'orienter les décisions sur les
politiques, les programmes et les pratiques.
Le webinaire sera axé sur les « expériences naturelles
», où la participation et l'expertise des chercheurs
pourraient s'avérer utiles, c'est-à-dire les programmes,
politiques et approches de distribution des ressources mis en place par
d'autres intervenants (p. ex., les responsables des politiques), qui
évoluent rapidement et pourraient avoir un impact sur la
santé et l'équité en santé à
l'échelle de la population.
Les chercheurs tâchent d'établir des priorités de
recherche sur les politiques, les programmes et les pratiques afin de les
étudier grâce à l'outil de financement des IRSC en
recherche interventionnelle en santé des populations. L'animateur
présentera également un aperçu des mécanismes
de financement des IRSC pouvant servir à soutenir ce type de
recherche.
Le webinaire comprendra une présentation de Carol Hopkins,
directrice générale de la Fondation autochtone nationale de
partenariat pour la lutte contre les dépendances, qui connaît
très bien l'état actuel des politiques. Cette
présentation sera suivie d'une période de questions. Des
membres du personnel de l'Institut de la santé publique et des
populations des IRSC seront également sur place pour
répondre aux questions des participants au sujet des
dernières possibilités de financement en recherche
interventionnelle en santé des populations de l'Institut et des
autres outils de financement des IRSC.
Si vous avez des questions au sujet du webinaire, S.V.P. contactez Kim
Gaudreau, Associée, Initiatives stratégiques, Institut de la
santé publique et des populations des IRSC à
kim.gaudreau@cihr-irsc.gc.ca.
Si vous avez des questions au sujet de l'Initiative phare Voies de
l'équité en santé pour les Autochtones, S.V.P.
contactez Paul Bélanger, Directeur Adjoint, l'Institut de la
santé des Autochtones des IRSC à
paul.belanger@cihr-irsc.gc.ca.
Le webinaire se tiendra le vendredi 17 août à 13:00 HAE. Nous
vous invitons à vous inscrire au webinaire à ce site web.
Remarque : Le webinaire sera seulement offert en anglais. Toutefois, le
personnel de l'ISPP des IRSC répondra avec plaisir aux questions et
commentaires en français.
Initiative phare Voies de l'équité en santé
pour les Autochtones Le but général de l'initiative Voies
de l'équité en santé pour les
Autochtones est de mieux comprendre comment mettre en œuvre et
reproduire à grande échelle des interventions et des
programmes qui auront pour effet de réduire les
disparités en matière de santé chez les
Autochtones (Premières Nations, Inuit et Métis) dans quatre
domaines prioritaires : le suicide, l'obésité, la
tuberculose et la santé buccodentaire. Cette initiative
est codirigée par trois instituts des IRSC : l'Institut de
la santé des Autochtones, l'Institut de la santé des femmes
et des hommes et l'Institut de la santé publique et
des populations. Exemple d'un projet de recherche
interventionnelle en santé des populations financé
par les IRSC En 2010, le projet de loi S-11, Loi sur la
salubrité de l'eau potable des Premières Nations, a
été déposé en vue de réglementer le
traitement de l'eau potable et des eaux usées. Ce projet de
recherche dirigé par Cheryl Waldner vise à
étudier l'impact potentiel de cette loi sur
l'équité en santé chez les membres des
Premières Nations.
Journal of Canadian Studies Call for Papers
(Le texte français suit)
*Call for Papers: Beyond the Culture of Nature: Rethinking Canadian and
Environmental Studies*
Theme Issue of the *Journal of Canadian Studies*
Guest Editor: Matthew Evenden
Canadian and Environmental Studies are two fields in transformation.
Initiated
in part as emancipatory projects in the 1970s, seeking to define subjects
and articulate their meanings, the two fields have diverged and been
complicated by shifting ideas about nation and nationalism on the one hand,
and the environment and sustainability on the other. Wilderness once stood
as a central shared concern of the two fields, but constructivist critiques
have highlighted its associations with race, gender, settler societies and
social power, and the discourse of sustainability has transcended
wilderness as a cultural and linguistic artifact, reliant on a binary
vision of nature and culture. This special issue asks what has replaced
the culture of nature that once provided common ground for Canadian and
Environmental Studies? How do area and interdisciplinary studies
intersect, and with what benefits and problems? Does a shared agenda
remain? This special issue will consider the evolving relationship between
Canadian and Environmental Studies scholarship and imagine their
intertwined futures.

*Possible paper topics include:*
- The place of nature in Canadian Studies
- The place of Canada in Environmental Studies
- What's left of wilderness and the culture of nature?
- Understanding Canada, regions and places in a world of global
flows and environmental processes
Academics and graduate students nearing completion of a PhD are invited to
submit 250-word abstracts for consideration. The deadline for abstracts is
1 September 2012. Papers selected for submission should be made available
by 1 December 2012. All papers will undergo a formal peer review process
through the *Journal of Canadian Studies*. Completed abstracts or questions
should be directed to the guest editor, Matthew Evenden, at

Numéro thématique de la *Revue d'études canadiennes*
Rédacteur invité : Matthew Evenden
Les études canadiennes et les études environnementales sont deux champs en
transformation. Entrepris en partie en tant que projets émancipatoires au
cours des années 1970, cherchant à définir des sujets et à élaborer leurs
significations, ces deux champs d'études ont divergé et se sont
complexifiés en même temps que les notions de nation et de nationalisme,
ainsi que celles d'environnement et de durabilité, se recomposaient.
Autrefois une préoccupation commune de ces deux champs, la nature sauvage (*
wilderness*) est dorénavant associée par les critiques constructivistes à
la race, au genre, aux sociétés coloniales et au pouvoir social. Quant au
discours sur la durabilité, il a transcendé la nature sauvage en tant
qu'artefact culturel et linguistique, tributaire d'une vision binaire de la
nature et de la culture. Le présent numéro spécial s'interroge sur ce qui a
remplacé la culture de la nature en tant que point commun des études
canadiennes et environnementales. Comment est-ce que les études régionales (
*area studies*) et les études interdisciplinaires s'entrecoupent, avec
quels bénéfices et quels problèmes? Existe-t-il encore des points de
convergence? Ce numéro spécial cherche à rassembler les chercheurs en
études canadiennes et environnementales pour discuter et débattre de la
relation entre les deux champs d'études et imaginer un avenir commun.

*Thèmes de recherche possibles :*
- La place de la nature dans les études canadiennes
- La place du Canada dans les études environnementales
- Que reste-il de la nature sauvage et de la culture de la nature?
- Comprendre le Canada, les régions et les lieux dans un monde de
circulations globales et de processus environnementaux.
Les universitaires et les étudiants de troisième cycle qui obtiendront
bientôt leur doctorat sont invités à soumettre des résumés de 250 mots pour
évaluation. La date limite de soumission des résumés est le 1er septembre
2012. Les manuscrits qui seront retenus doivent être remis au plus tard le 1
er décembre 2012. Ils feront tous l'objet d'une évaluation formelle par les
pairs organisée par la *Revue d'études canadiennes*. Vous pouvez faire
parvenir vos résumés terminés ou vos questions au rédacteur invité, Matthew
Evenden, à matthew.evenden@ubc.ca.
