Joint Chair in Women’s Studies (JCWS) at the University of Ottawa and �Ӱ�ԭ�� University

In 1985, the Office of the Secretary of State created a Joint Chair in Women’s Studies (JCWS) at the University of Ottawa and �Ӱ�ԭ�� University. Four other chairs of women’s studies, in Vancouver, Winnipeg, Quebec City and Halifax, were also established under the same program. Working in both French and English, the incumbent of the Joint Chair in Women’s Studies at the University of Ottawa and �Ӱ�ԭ�� University teaches, engages in research and participates in appropriate committees and events on both campuses, acts as a resource person on women’s issues and feminist research at both universities, and establishes and maintains contact with local, regional, national and international feminist educational and community-based organizations.

Marie-Eve Carrier-Moisan is the incumbent of the Joint Chair in Women’s Studies at the University of Ottawa and �Ӱ�ԭ�� University.

Dr. Carrier-Moisan began her JCWS mandate on July 1, 2023.

During her mandate as Joint Chair in Women’s Studies, Dr. Carrier-Moisan will propose various events on the theme of “Multimodal Scholarships and Feminist, Public Knowledges”. These events will be opportunities to learn and reflect together on creative and multimodal approaches to feminist research and ways of doing and telling research otherwise, drawing inspiration from emerging practices that tend to decenter dominant modes of scientific knowledges and to expand the possibilities of accessible, feminist, anti-racist, decolonial knowledges. She invites members of the student and faculty community, as well as feminist activists, artists, and scholars to join her in the various events and activities she will be organizing at the University of Ottawa and �Ӱ�ԭ�� University.

Dr. Carrier-Moisan will also be teaching undergraduate and graduate level courses, (including in English) at �Ӱ�ԭ�� University, “Storying otherwise: feminist scholarships through (ethno)graphic narratives” and in French, at the University of Ottawa, “Raconter la recherche autrement: approches créatives et multimodales des savoirs féministes”.
