The University of Winnipeg has received a $500,000 grant to study the intergenerational impacts of Canada’s residential schools system.
The university announced on Monday that its Oral History Centre has received the grant from the Aboriginal Healing Foundation to produce a digital storytelling project.
As part of the project, researchers will speak with aboriginal men who were raised by those who were students of residential schools.
The latest study builds on similar research that was carried out in 2010, when six aboriginal women shared their stories of being raised by mothers who had to attend the schools.
