Our Mission

The Nexus Centre fosters collaborative and interdisciplinary research in the humanities and social sciences at Memorial University, in the wider academic community, and in the public realm. The Centre promotes the humanities and social sciences as vital knowledge for understanding the past, for navigating the present, and for addressing the key issues and challenges as engaged citizens in the 21st century.

We acknowledge that the lands on which Memorial University’s campuses are situated are in the traditional territories of diverse Indigenous groups, and we acknowledge with respect the diverse histories and cultures of the Beothuk, Mi’kmaq, Innu, and Inuit of this province.
