Under the Tent:
An Open Call to Graduate Students
CERC in Migration and Integration has launched a new project, Under the Tent, and is once again inviting graduate students from across Canada.
Under the Tent is a multimedia storytelling project that explores the sense of belonging or not belonging under the tent of Canadian multiculturalism – a 50-year legacy of government policy that was intended to recognize the nation’s racial and cultural diversity, and promote the inclusive and equal participation of all Canadians. Multiculturalism has brought enthusiasm as well as disappointment, equity and inequality, and community and exclusion, especially around Indigenous reconciliation and decolonization.
Under the Tent, the next iteration of the inaugural i am project, invites selected participants to reflect on individual and collective experiences with multiculturalism and to propose contributions towards its future possibilities. It is a multimedia space that invites participants to produce creative works that express criticisms and new thinking. Under the Tent is intended to unpack and reframe multiculturalism through a creative lens.
Under the Tent is led by Cyrus Sundar Singh and Anna Triandafyllidou, from the CERC Migration lab. The project begins in January 2022 and will end in June 2022.
