Mon projet nordique is the ultimate exercise in the popularization and synthesis of science. It is a competition during which doctoral students have five minutes to present their northern or Arctic research project.
Attend the event
My northern project is an opportunity to meet the next generation of scientists and discover the extent of the research being conducted north of the 49th parallel.
The activity will take place on May 23, 2019, at the Musée de la civilisation. Registration is now open.
The Institut nordique du Québec’s First Peoples Working Group, with the financial support of the Société du Plan Nord and the Cree Nation Government, held a two-day workshop in Oujé-Bougoumou, Eeyou Istchee, to discuss the best ways for researchers and indigenous peoples to respectfully share and transfer indigenous and scientific knowledge.
The researchers, indigenous representatives and knowledge holders who attended the workshop discussed ways to increase the participation of indigenous communities in research.
A report will be published containing the results of the fruitful discussions held over the two days. The report will include recommendations about the tools that must be put in place to enable greater community participation in research.

The future INQ science pavilion on the Université Laval campus will be designed by the Groupe Nordi-Cité.
The group of professionals is composed of: Consortium Saucier + Perrotte / GLCRM Architects; Stantec Consulting Experts Ltd. and Stantec |Pageau Morel. The INQ building complex, covering an area of approximately 11,000 m2, will primarily house research labs, individual, shared and collaborative work areas, centralized space for technical and mission preparation and collective and public areas for knowledge dissemination.
In addition to this future pavilion, other infrastructure components are currently under development in northern Québec. More details to follow...
