Closure of AICBR - CBC Yukon's Midday Cafe Interview with Leonard Linklater, “Yukon research organization closes because of lack of core funding”

While the Arctic Institute of Community-Based Research (AICBR) has closed its doors officially as of October 2020, the website will remain online as a knowledge hub for food security, climate change and healthy living resources until January 2023. We encourage you to explore the knowledge hub and download materials and we hope that these resources will find good use in communities across the Yukon and beyond!

AICBR’s work focused on facilitating community-based research and mobilizing knowledge for health promotion, climate change adaptation and food security. Many tools, stories and resources were produced over the years in collaboration with our partners.

Community-Based Research

 

At a gathering in 2012, AICBR worked with our partners to come up with a common understanding of community.

In the Yukon, the primary community for AICBR is a community of place, where all living things are connected ecologically and spiritually -the people, the land, animals and plants in rural and urban locations. AICBR recognizes that all those living in the Yukon belong to several different communities - they connect to others with similar interests; such as others who speak the same language, have the same history, belong to the same profession, care about the same problem, work together or go to school together. Both communities of place and communities of interest are evolving and dynamic. Read More...
