Research-as-Solidarity, with Youth Leading the Way Raihan, Jensine; Smiles, Niiyokamigaabaw Deondre; Vincent, Jaimie G.; Banerjee, Rwittika; Marquis, Sarah; Quinn, Sadie; Robitaille, Katherine; Stuart, Mary; McQuarrie, Annie; Spiridigliozzi, Melissa; Eccles, Stephanie; Gobby, Jen
Abstract
Through the lens of youth engaged in the grassroots network Research for the Front Lines (R4FL) in Turtle Island, this essay explores how youth use research as a form of solidarity with marginalized communities in the context of escalating crises, ranging from climate change to systemic inequities. R4FL supports Indigenous, Black, and marginalized groups facing disproportionate impacts from environmental and climate changes. Drawing on the experiences of a diverse group of youth researchers, we examine the barriers posed by traditional academic structures and advocate for a research paradigm that prioritizes community needs, transparency, and accountability. Our discussions highlight how youth leverage our knowledge and research skills in service of social justice and environmental equity.
