Call for research project proposals - Summer 2009

Does your community or activist group have research needs? Well then
look no further than CURE!

CURE (Community University Research Exchange) is a project of
QPIRG-Concordia and QPIRG-McGill. CURE is a database by which students
can integrate their academic research with the work of local movements
and activist organizations. Through the administrative infrastructures
already in place at McGill and Concordia University, students may
complete a CURE research project as an independent study course,
internship, or thesis advised by a departmental professor, or as a
term project for an upper-level class. By connecting students to
non-profit community groups with limited resources, we hope to
encourage and support academic research that is socially relevant.

Submit your research proposals this summer!

Students will begin taking on research projects during the fall 2009
semester, so we are encouraging local activist groups, collectives,
and community organizations to submit their research proposals during
the summer. A copy of the research request form is attached. You can
fill it out and email it to cure.mtl@gmail.com, or find more
information about the project on our website,
www.qpirgconcordia.org/cure.

For more information, please don't hesitate to contact Aaron Lakoff,
the CURE coordinator, at cure.mtl@gmail.com or 514-848-7585.
