We acknowledge that the work to develop the Downtown Eastside Research Access Portal happens on the unceded, traditional, and continually occupied territory of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples.
The purpose of this portal is to make research about the DTES more accessible and easier to discover. This portal is part of our ongoing commitment to changing the negative impacts of extractive ways of doing research and encouraging a more engaged and collaborative culture of knowledge exchange.
