Announcing our new seminar series in partnership with the Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research (GLIER) at the University of Windsor!

For the first time ever, two sister graduate programs – GLIER (University of Windsor) & Transformative Research in Urban Sustainability Training (T-RUST, Wayne State University) – are partnering to deliver a virtual seminar series entitled: Transformative Change in Environmental Sustainability. Seminars will be every 2 weeks starting on September 25th!

The seminar series will be co-run between the graduate student groups at the University of Windsor (GLIER, School of Environment) and Wayne State University T-RUST and will be focused on connecting our virtual graduate student and early-career research communities. Invited speakers reflect a shared commitment to amplifying diverse Black, Indigenous and People of Colour voices and perspectives, and to broaden perspectives through a range of traditional seminars, break out groups for graduate students, special topic panels and global examples of impactful science, practice and policy.

We are excited to announce our first five speakers:

Dr. Vivian Nguyen, Carleton University 

Dr. Rahul Mitra, Wayne State University

Dr. Janani Sivarajah, Brock University 

Dr. Helen Jarvie, University of Waterloo

Dr. Erin Dunlop, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry
