En termes de sujets de recherche, le groupe s’intéresse à absolument tout―les études autochtones, les études sur les Noirs, les études francophones et les études LGBTQ2S+ sont particulièrement pertinentes. ACTIVITÉS
Le Groupe de recherche sur la région de la rivière Détroit organise 4 à 5 conférences publiques par an, soit virtuellement, soit en personne. Tous les événements sont ouverts au grand public. En outre, le groupe cherche constamment à établir des liens avec d'autres organisations―des deux côtés de la frontière―qui font la promotion de l'histoire locale.
