This session is for researchers including faculty members and graduate students, who want to learn more about taking part in Indigenous research. Whether you teach a research methods course within your discipline, are involved with Indigenous research, or are simply interested in the topic, this session is for you.

Indigenous research involves many considerations, including the beliefs and attitudes that guide our actions as researchers. Join this 1-hour virtual session to discuss research paradigms, positionality, and ways to cultivate respectful research partnerships. Relevant resources will be shared, and participants will have the opportunity to ask questions relating to their own research practices or goals.
