Joining us for our Decolonizing Research Online Panel?

Meet panelist Mariel Belanger. Ms. Belanger is a Syilx artist-scholar whose interdisciplinary work contributes to the growth of the arts as a method to engage Indigenous community, language, culture, and as a bridge to society through telling stories of our time. She is a graduate of the Enowkin Centre's National Aboriginal Professional Artist Training Program, holds a BFA in Interdisciplinary Performance, and an MFA in Interdisciplinary Studies from UBC. She is a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada scholarship recipient.

The Deep Water Initiative is inspired by the ecological importance of water as an all-pervasive element that sustains life on this planet.  The metaphysical importance of water as both a cleanser and regenerator has been upheld by many cultures throughout the world, and is celebrated within the creation myths of different religious and spiritual traditions.  The Deep Water Initiative has been particularly influenced by the significance of water as demonstrated within the Five Books of Moses.
