Upcoming Event

ISCEI is thrilled to extend a special invitation to you for an afternoon with Billy-Ray Belcourt, this year's Writer in Residence.

 

ISCEI is committed to supporting the work of Indigenous faculty, students, and staff, as well as to providing seed funding for Indigenous community engagement projects, both on campus and in partnership with Indigenous communities. In line with the goals of the grant, priority will be given to work which has positive impacts for Indigenous communities local to McGill University, Quebec, or Canada more broadly.

Requests for funding will be reviewed by an internal committee three times per year, listed below. Funding can be used within 12 months of the review date.
