Research with Indigenous communities requires meaningful, accountable partnerships. 

As such, the session will focus on how meaningful research partnerships can be fostered between researchers and Indigenous communities, centering around a relationship-based and co-creation approach to building partnership, sharing examples and discussing adaptation of research methods.

The workshop will be facilitated by Melissa Tremblay (assistant professor in the Department of Educational Psychology, University of Alberta) and Richard Oster (research associate in the Department of Agricultural, Food, and Nutritional Science, University of Alberta), both of whom have dedicated a significant amount of time to community-based participatory research approaches focusing on partnership and equitable collaboration with Indigenous communities.

Thank you to WCHRI for facilitating such an important conversation, and we hope you're able to join us for a day of meaningful learning and discussion!
