The Concordia Public Scholars Program brought an incredible group of researchers together for 2025 - 2026, each bringing a new way of making research more public. Through policy, art, research-creation, electrification, biodiversity, or nostalgia, these scholars created public-facing events that fostered research connections and public dialogue.

Public scholarship is integral to the next generation of research, so stay tuned for the 2026 - 2027 Public Scholar events!

You can find the previous year's cohort events in the playlist linked below: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5pdApUWmJ1yy6-EnWGXJYHS1PbUPAT6f&si=1AMTGkUxgJBolJA0
