Assessing Contributions of Indigenous Women to Canadian Arctic Policy

I am a current MSS student at the University of Calgary studying security policy, feminist security studies, and Indigenous security. My thesis focuses on the influence of Northern Indigenous women on the development of Canadian security policy at the turn of the century. Broadly, the project will examine the roles of key women in the paradigm shift from traditional to human security following the Cold War, and the influence of Indigenous advocacy in Northern Canada.
