Our team is grateful to hear that one of our articles about our approach to being led by our community partners has been recognized.

  • Organization: NCTE’s Conference on College Composition and Communication
  • Award: 2025 CCCC Technical and Scientific Communication Award
  • Category: Best Article on Philosophy or Theory of Technical or Scientific Communication
  • Article: Cana Uluak Itchuaqiyaq, Chris A. Lindgren, Corina Qaaġraq Kramer. (2023). Decolonizing Community-Engaged Research: Designing CER with Cultural Humility as a Foundational Value. Communication Design Quarterly, 11(3), 12-20. https://doi.org/10.1145/3592367.3592369.
  • Selection Committee comment: “Arguing that cultural humility ‘is a necessary precondition’ for effective, respectful community-engaged research (CER), this article extends earlier scholarship by addressing the ‘how’ of CER. The authors introduce a three-strategy framework for enacting cultural humility in the context of CER, using the ancient Inuit cooperative activity Nalukataq as an extended metaphor. Coupling this metaphor with examples and an applied heuristic, Itchuaqiyaq, Lindgren, and Kramer have gifted the field a practical, actionable theory to improve our work.”

About

The Rematriation Project is a digital archiving project directed by an Iñupiaq-led and serving tribal organization, Aqqaluk Trust, in Kotzebue, Alaska. Our project's aim is to create capacity for and access to digital archives related to Inuit cultural, tribal, scientific knowledges, and history to assist tribes and communities. In partnership with a team of scholars (itself led by an Iñupiaq scholar from Kotzebue) from Virginia Tech, North Carolina State University, and American College of the Mediterranean, we operate on a foundation of community-first, community-led decision making. We seek to empower Indigenous communities with self-determined data and research sovereignty to collect, control, interpret, and benefit from data that originates from their communities.
