“Partnering in Research” (PiR) is a collaborative venture between the Knowledge Exchange Unit and Indigenous Research Support Initiative of UBC’s Vice President Research and Innovation, the Office of Community Engagement under the Vice President External Relations, and the Centre for Asian Canadian Research and Engagement in the Faculty of Arts.
Inspired by the success of the inaugural UBC Partnering in Research Conference in June 2023, UBC are committed to offering regular programs that uphold and promote excellence in partnered research. This initiative is designed for UBC researchers, students and staff engaged in partnered research, as well as community partners already collaborating with UBC.
