A Northern Social Science Research Partnership Program
Welcome!
ReSDA is a Major Collaborative Research Initiative that brings together a broad range of disciplines and organizations representing universities, colleges, communities, government, the private sector and non-profits in northern Canada and other Circumpolar countries. This Northern Research Network will examine ways to ensure that a larger share of the benefits of resource developments stay in the region with fewer costs to communities. Beginning April 1, 2011 this network will begin to develop, conduct and mobilize research aimed at the sustainable development of Arctic natural resources in a manner that will improve the health and well being of Canada's northern communities while preserving the region's unique environment.
To start the discussions and planning for the network the First Annual ReSDA workshop was held on November 24-25, 2011 in Yellowknife. This workshop was to determine the initial research required and look at how the a research plan can be developed for the next 7 years. more details
