Le Centre de recherches en éducation franco-ontarienne (CREFO) est un centre de recherche interdisciplinaire qui pose un regard critique sur les pratiques éducatives, sociales et langagières de la francophonie en Ontario, au Canada et dans le monde. Les problématiques abordées visent l’étude des processus de minorisation sur des thématiques variées. En plus de l’apport à la recherche, les professeures-chercheures et professeurs-chercheurs affiliés au CREFO participent à l’offre de cours en français dans les départements de Curriculum, Teaching & Learning et de Social Justice Education dont ils sont membres.

The Centre for Indigenous Educational Research (CIER) is designed to foster Indigenous resurgence and strengthen an Indigenous presence in research practices, but more specifically within Indigenous educational research contexts. The Centre provides a safe and supportive research environment linking Indigenous communities and the university. It serves to promote and support culturally aligned methodologies and theoretical approaches to Indigenous educational research. It also seeks to establish and promote place-specific ethics and protocols that guide the work in Indigenous and non-Indigenous research collaborations and the ways researchers work with Indigenous communities.
