Research Support
The RECAP Program - Western Research
The Research Engagement Collaborative Alliance with Partners (RECAP) Program, offered by Western Research, empowers Western researchers to forge research partnerships and strengthen meaningful collaborations.
The program offers a learning platform, events and funding opportunities to support collaboration and ensure research addresses real-world challenges. Researchers will build skills to help them connect with a diverse network of partners—including community and organizations, industry leaders and government agencies —to drive impactful research and innovation. The initiative aims to foster meaningful engagement and mobilize research findings for societal benefit.

Embedding EDID and Indigenous Considerations in Research
Research that embraces respect, reciprocity, relationships, responsibility, relevance and representation drives greater impact and elevates research excellence. Fostering an inclusive research environment encourages diversity and can only be realized when we commit to informed, intentional and equitable practices throughout our research ecosystem.
