Disavowing Colonialism: The Canadian Federal Government on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (Master’s Thesis)
This Master’s thesis analyzes federal government reports on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) through a critical discourse lens. It examines how government narratives frame the crisis and explores tensions between these perspectives and those of Indigenous organizations and human rights groups, which emphasize the ongoing impacts of colonization. The study highlights how policy framing can shape responses to the crisis and influence accountability, priorities, and outcomes.
Best for: Policymakers, researchers, educators, and organizations working in Indigenous engagement, gender-based violence prevention, public policy, and reconciliation.
