Technoscience Research Unit
An Indigenous-led home for critical and creative research on the politics of technoscience.
Since 2007, the Technoscience Research Unit at the University of Toronto has been the institutional Indigenous-led home for many scholars researching within the fields of science, technology and environment. Through research projects, micro-laboratories, and working groups, we support and foster Indigenous, feminist, queer, environmental, anti-racist and anti-colonial methodologies for studying the history and politics of technoscience. Our research activities – clustered together in laboratories – are organized according to three priority areas: Environmental Data Justice; Indigenous Science, Technology & Environment Studies; and Indigenous Science and Ethical Substance.
