Description
Summary:This case study is based on three Indigenous community-based projects that promoted Indigenous Peoples' sovereignty and self-determination. Particularly, the case study highlights how research can be done in a good way with Indigenous communities. Self-determined, sovereign research is imperative for community engagement and sustainable solutions and change. This is also the way forward to ensure research does not continue to do harm to Indigenous communities. Indigenous Peoples are the first researchers, but their research looks different from what research is often known as today-led by colonial education, academia, and ethics-so when it comes to research with Indigenous communities, we must be flexible and humble and honor their expertise. Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is best suited for Indigenous research methodologies to be realized but requires flexibility and humility of researchers. Insights from Indigenous CBPR projects informed this case study.
