Abstract

Abstract : Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore Indigenous Works' efforts to facilitate Indigenous-led research that is responsive to the socio-economic needs, values and traditions of Indigenous communities. Design/methodology/approach: This paper is grounded in an Indigenous research paradigm that is facilitated by Indigenous-led community-based participatory action research (PAR) methodology informed by the Two Row Wampum and Two-Eyed Seeing framework to bridge Indigenous science and knowledge systems with western ones. Findings: The findings point to the need for greater focus on how Indigenous and western knowledge may be aligned within the methodological content domain while tackling a wide array of Indigenous research goals that involve non-Indigenous allies. Originality/value: This paper addresses the need to develop insights and understandings into how to develop a safe, ethical space for Indigenous-led trans-disciplinary and multi-community collaborative research partnerships that contribute to community self-governance and well-being.
