Auxiliaire de recherche en agriculture et systèmes alimentaires durables, Bishop's University Je suis auxiliaire de recherche en Agriculture et systèmes alimentaires durables (ASAD) à l'Université Bishop's, en territoire non cédé de la nation abénakise connu comme Sherbrooke, Québec. Enrichie de mon expérience dans le milieu communautaire comme éducatrice, je m'intéresse présentement à la souveraineté alimentaire, et partculièrement aux modèles alternatifs et coopératifs de production et de mise en marché ainsi qu'à l'insécurité alimentaire. Dans le cadre de ma dernière année comme étudiante en ASAD et dans une perspective décoloniale, je réalise actuellement un projet de recherche sur la place des chercheur.euse.s en support à la souveraineté alimentaire autochtone en context canadien.
Auxiliaire de recherche en agriculture et systèmes alimentaires durables, Bishop's University Provenant du milieu agricole biologique, je m'intéresse maintenant à trouver des stratégies afin de reconnecter l'humain à la nature. Favoriser l'émergence et l'implantation de systèmes alimentaires durables est selon moi une façon holistique de répondre à plusieurs enjeux, tels que la crise environnementale et la justice sociale, puisque l'alimentation est un des piliers de notre existence. En septembre 2023, je rentrerai à la maîtrise en "Landscape and Wellbeing" à l'Université d'Édimbourg pour étudier l'impact que les paysages et les milieux naturels ont sur notre quotidien. J'ai donc l'ambition de revenir au Québec inspirée et prête à mettre la main à la pâte, ou la pelle, pour contribuer activement à ce changement de cap. Je me trouve donc en grande période d'exploration.
