From Recognition to Action

Co-Creating Municipal Accountability Tools for Indigenous Health and Reconciliation
Urban Indigenous people continue to experience systemic barriers when interacting with municipal governments—particularly in areas that directly affect health, wellbeing, housing, and access to services. While municipalities across British Columbia have made commitments to reconciliation, there are few concrete tools to measure progress, ensure accountability, or reflect Indigenous-defined priorities. From Recognition to Action is an Indigenous-led, community-based participatory action research project that brings urban Indigenous communities and municipalities together to co-create practical accountability tools for reconciliation. Grounded in Indigenous knowledge systems and lived experience, the project supports municipalities to move beyond symbolic commitments toward measurable, community-defined action that improves Indigenous health and wellbeing.

Help us build a map and community around community-based research projects 

Do you have a project that needs additional support (e.g. a researcher, community partner, or funding)? Or perhaps you have an existing or past project that you want to let the community know about and how they can get involved?

We are building a database of projects to help raise awareness about current (and past) projects in the Salish Sea. This will help us to:

  • Provide real examples and case studies on how CBR can be used by communities to use local knowledge to co-develop solutions to our challenges

  • Help connect projects with resources by promoting opportunities for individuals and organizations to get involved with different projects

  • Raise awareness on ways that co-developed research projects can help engage with communities (particularly those who have been harmed by or kept out of research processes in the past)

Submit your project details using the form below by February 9th, 2026. We will create a slide for our event to promote you and your work at our next SSH Community Social on February 12th, 2026.

In addition to adding your project to our database, we will put your details up on our 'Connections' Board at our community networking events to help connect you to the people and partners you need to be successful.
