Sociology
Guntas Kaur is a Punjabi-Sikh community-based researcher and PhD student in Sociology at the University of British Columbia, working under the supervision of Dr. Renisa Mawani. Her academic research broadly explores the possibilities of Indigenous-Sikh solidarities by examining historical anti-colonial linkages and fostering contemporary intercultural connections. Her doctoral project focuses on how reconciliation can manifest from the perspective of non-white settlers, particularly within the Punjabi diaspora, and the critical roles of land, language, and accountability in this process. Guntas also works as a Policy Analyst at Indigenous Services Canada.
