Where do I fit?
Research should be done without imposing
Western terms, concepts, and paradigms. This
includes imposing Western views of health and
wellness that may not be shared within other
views.
…the term ‘research’ is inextricably linked to European imperialism and colonialism. The word itself, ‘research,’ is probably one of the dirtiest words in the [I]ndigenousworld’s vocabulary.
Smith, 2012

Safe Space
• Favour collective, process-oriented
methods that address the four R’s
• Qualitative, community-based
participatory methods are great, but
not the only way
• Situate the research in relationship
