Dr. Késa Munroe-Anderson teaches in Acadia's School of Education. “Since my student days, Acadia has provided additional support, but we still have work to do to ensure our students in marginalized groups have a sense of belonging and can enjoy healthy wellbeing during their studies.”

In a new two-year study, Acadia researchers are partnering with students who self-identify as Muslim, of African descent, or international students in a project designed not only to understand their lived experiences but to help them thrive.

Two Acadia University faculty members have been awarded Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Insight Research grants totaling more than $158,000 in support of innovative research. Julia Rombough (History and Classics) and Matthew McSweeney (Nutrition and Dietetics) are undertaking projects that use past experiences to shape how we engage with important issues of our time.

Acadia University faculty were recently awarded five Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Discovery Grants, totaling over $716,000 in research funding.
