Achieving 96% in Anthropology of Gender and Sexuality at UBC last year, I was invited to work alongside a team of undergraduate students to redesign this upper level course as part of the UBC Students as Partners initiative. Our central aims have been to diversify and Indigenize the syllabus, incorporate content on intersectional perspectives and bring activism to the forefront while establishing a more accessible learning environment.

Alongside the Human Rights Collective at UBC my team will be conducting research and analysis to advance the understanding of military action as it concerns climate change and the protection of cultural heritage. This project is run by the Canadian Armed Forces' Dallaire Centre of Excellence (DCOE) and takes place at the intersection of human rights and human security, both issues very relevant to my background in sociocultural Anthropology. I am excited to get started working with a multidisciplinary team as we aim to develop concepts, advance relevant research and sponsor doctrinal changes in support of military training and education on the topic of heritage, peace and security.
