Great opportunity to learn more about Indigenous peoples within many contexts.

Working with Dr. Kamal and Riipen has been a great experience to help my skills grow as a student and researcher.

Good project

Dr. Kamal is a great teacher. She really challenges you to become a great writer and researcher. She has highlighted many different writing styles and is a strong respected ally for Indigenous peoples.

Desmond has demonstrated exceptional research skills. He also gave a presentation in one of my classes and his project was greatly appreciated. His data analysis and team work through Riipen was also benefitting other Riipen level up scholars! Good work.

Working with the employers was a great experience and being able to represent my background to others has been a pleasure to do.

It was an awesome experience with the University College of the North institutions. I love how this experience will look good on my background for future jobs.

The ripen level up program was fairly easy to navigate and work with.

Desmond's work is a perfect example of how Aboriginal Oral History Methodology can be a useful tool to revive understanding of identity, culture, language, and stories.

Desmond Canning is very passionate about his work. The in-depth historical analysis in his paper attests to that.
