Indigenous Research Ethics and Cultural Studies

Dr. Chantal FiolaOn November 22, 2019, the Centre for Research in Cultural Studies (CRiCS) hosted "Indigenous Research Ethics and Cultural Studies" as its final fall 2019 session in the Professional Development Series. Facilitated by Dr. Chantal Fiola, this session was an opportunity for faculty, students, and staff to learn more about Dr. Fiola's research and how Indigenous research ethics can be applicable to their own research projects and practices. She raised questions such as: What is Indigenous research? What are the benefits and challenges of pan-Indigenous versus nation-specific approaches? How are ethics inextricable from methodology? Her presentation stressed the importance of situating oneself within one's research practices and working directly with Indigenous communities on Indigenous related research projects, concluding with a few notes for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers.
