At the heart of all research and scholarship lie relationships. These relationships involve researchers and the communities and individuals with whom we collaborate. They also involve our loved ones, our mentors and students, our data, and the academy itself, among many others. As Indigenous scholars, we are particularly mindful of maintaining and strengthening these relationships, according to our own people' teachings and the teachings of those with whom we collaborate. What are the relationships that you sustain, and that sustain you, within your research and scholarship?


Scholars wishing to present at NASAA's 9th Annual Symposium must electronically submit a 250 word (maximum) abstract or summary of their proposed presentation. In addition to the summary, presenters must include:
