About the academy
Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission recognized that, among other things, Indigenous Peoples need to be included in the business world on their own terms. Thus, the event’s overall goal is to support Indigenous self-determination and economic reconciliation by enhancing Indigenous research and research training for the next generation of Indigenous and non-Indigenous management and organization researchers. This event is a direct response to the Commission’s call, one that benefits our whole society.
IARIMOS 2024 Call for Papers
Date: Thursday August 15th to Saturday August 17th, 2024
Location: Telfer School of Management, University of Ottawa
We are very pleased to announce the 2nd meeting of The International Academy of Research in Indigenous Management and Organizational Studies. Last year’s inaugural meeting was an unqualified success with researchers attending from around the globe! We have received enthusiastic support and interest from various journals and institutions, a testament to the relevance and importance of IARIMOS. View the CFP here.
We invite submissions for participation in the Academy from doctoral students, postdoctoral scholars, and junior faculty, Indigenous or non-Indigenous, who are working on topics in Indigenous enterprise, management, and entrepreneurship, especially as those intersect with ideas of sustainability, reconciliation, and resurgence.
Our call is meant to embrace a wide range of methodologies, topics, interests, and challenges. Submissions may draw on work-in-progress as part of a thesis, a project for publication, or maybe a new project related to the Academy’s subject area.
