Student perspective panel of the #G7 #G7Academies #ArcticSummit #ArcticSustainability starting! So happy that there is an entire panel dedicated to student / young researcher voice 👏👏👏 @RSCTheAcademies @g7 @DSP_SPE #NextGeneration #NextGenCanScience @Y7Canada
Students are often the ones with boots on the ground, interacting with local communities - this is one of the many reasons why it's important to have early career researchers represented in these discussions - @gwynmac #g7 #g7academies #arcticsustainability #ArcticSummit
Mentoring indigenous researchers is important & doable - @gwynmac presented a few slides on her research & methods to indigenous youth ➡ many were excited to get hands-on experience in research, some are now master's students #g7 #g7academies #ArcticSustainability #ArcticSummit
.@Marianne_Fa adds that funding to local communities is critical & currently insufficient, and that funding applications (even for student funding) should acknowledge importance of working w/ these communities #g7 #G7Academies #arcticsustainability #ArcticSummit
... it's important for metrics to reflect the reality of ECRs. Pursuing community engagement in the #arctic can mean slower pace of publication as a tradeoff, which plays against their career development given that this is the #1 criteria - @Marianne_Fa #g7 #G7Academies
adjusting funding structure of #tricouncil @NSERC_CRSNG @CIHR_IRSC @SSHRC_CRSH to provide recognition for research outcomes and outreach beyond publications incl time taken to incl communities in research & time for #scicomm is a clear step forward - @Marianne_Fa #g7 #G7Academies
⬆ This is fundamentally important! Students at large are asking for this. We @DSP_SPE recommended this in broader scope in our white paper from 2016: sp-exchange.ca/news/STEM-Whit…

Recommendations provided at today's student perspective panel session ⬇️ #G7Academies #G7 #ArcticSustainability #ArcticSummit
Important distinction brought up by @Marianne_Fa - meaningful engagement and #scicomm aren't the same. Going into a community and asking questions has much more meaningful impact than simply discussing your research from a podium #g7 #g7academies #ArcticSustainability
