Robin's research explores the intersection of Indigenous food sovereignty with cultural practices, colonial histories, and environmental relationships. She investigates decolonizing food planning, ethical engagements between Western and Indigenous sciences, and the impact of settler colonial bureaucracies on Indigenous food autonomy. Her work also addresses pandemic-related food challenges and the role of traditional knowledge in urban Indigenous communities.
