Research conducted with authentic partnerships and full community engagement with Indigenous people is urgently needed to address health inequities. Many researchers may not understand how to work with Indigenous communities and lack resources to guide them in conducting research that is equitable, inclusive and respectful of diverse Indigenous knowledge, ethics, practice and research sovereignty.

Indigenous Community Research Partnerships (ICRP) is an online open education training resource. It is designed to assist researchers who are new to research in partnerships with Inuit, Métis and First Nations (“Indigenous”) communities, or who are researchers-in-training, to:

Operationalize required regulatory policy requirements and research directives;
Ensure equitable inclusion of Indigenous and Western-oriented knowledge in research systems
And, in the case of Indigenous-specific enquiry, to privilege or give primacy to Indigenous ways of knowing and doing.

In this session, the co-creators of the training resource, will talk about the collaborative development of the resource, its goals and the importance of a principled approach to research partnerships with Indigenous communities.
