How do scholars and institutions engage in respectful, reciprocal relationships with the Indigenous community? What are the intersections between Indigenous ways of knowing and ethical approaches to collaborative research? How might researchers engender an ethos of ethical engagement when conducting research with Indigenous communities partners? In her talk, Margaret Kovach will unpack the concept of reciprocity as it pertains to doing research that includes, impacts, or pertains to Indigenous peoples.
This is a partnership event with Indigenous Research Support Initiative.
