Kelsey Chamberlin

Kelsey stayed on with HARC as Research Associate to work on knowledge translation for the Cultural Agility and Strength Within projects after completing a Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies under the supervision of Dr Sarah de Leeuw. Kelsey works remotely from their home along the banks of Widzin Kwah in Witsuwit’en Territory near the community of Smithers.

Kelsey’s work at HARC aligns with their interests in creative, anticolonial, and land-based approaches to cultivating well-being in northern communities. Kelsey also works with Myriad Dance Projects, a local arts organization in Smithers focused on collaborative movement-based projects rooted in land, culture, and community.

Outside of work, you’ll find Kelsey weaving on their loom, digging in the garden, or smashing the patriarchy in outdoor sports.
