<\/p>\n
The Rebuilding First Nations Governance (RFNG) project is seeking a post-doctoral fellow to join our work with First Nations who are shedding Indian Act governance and becoming self-determining.<\/p>\n
RFNG is supported by funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council through a Partnership Grant, as well as in-kind and financial support from First Nation and non-governmental organization partners. A key partner is the Centre for First Nations Governance. More information about the project and our partners is available at https:\/\/carleton.ca\/rfng\/<\/a><\/p>\n This is an exceptional opportunity to play an important role in ground-breaking, nationally important research that is led by and supports First Nations as they reclaim their own laws and engage their people in setting and implementing priorities for self-government. The work is interdisciplinary, touching on Aboriginal law, various aspects of public policy, and public administration. As the project\u2019s first post-doctoral fellow, you will be working with First Nation communities across Canada, as well as a network of Indigenous and non-Indigenous practitioners and academics. We have a strong crew of mainly Indigenous graduate research assistants, and an ambitious knowledge mobilization and publication program.<\/p>\n
