Indigenous knowledge systems and research methodologies : local solutions and global opportunities  Cover Image Book Book

Indigenous knowledge systems and research methodologies : local solutions and global opportunities / edited by Elizabeth Sumida Huaman and Nathan D. Martin.

Summary:

"Written by researchers working in and with Indigenous communities around the world, Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Research Methodologies is an international collaboration that offers guidance and lessons learned in the field. Including contributions from diverse geographic locations -- such as Canada, Peru, and Norway -- the book is anchored by specific themes: exploring decolonizing methodological paradigms, honouring Indigenous knowledge systems, and growing interdisciplinary collaboration toward Indigenous self-determination. Reflecting on Indigenous epistemologies and research, this text challenges researchers across distinct fields to examine issues of power, representation, participation, ownership, accountability, social justice, and transformation in research that involves Indigenous populations. Readers are encouraged to consider the purposes and utilities of research and its consequences for Indigenous identities, and both individual and community well-being. Finally, the contributors reflect on how research has been a colonial tool of domination and suppression, but highlight the relationship between local Indigenous knowledge systems and global possibilities, offering lessons and advancements rather than limitations."-- Provided by publisher.
