“…As a research method, it centers indigenous knowledge systems, ways of doing, values, and perspectives (Dean, 2010). As a research strategy, it helps to reposition and support indigenous knowledges and methods (Rigney, 2001;Smith, 1999;Warrior, 1999). The increasing acceptance of yarning as a research method can be seen as a "step toward assisting indigenous theorists and practitioners to determine what might be an appropriate response to delegitimise racist oppression in research and shift to a more empowering and self-determining outcome" (Rigney, 1999, p. 110).…”

This project explores yarning as a methodology for understanding health and wellness from an indigenous woman's perspective. Previous research exploring indigenous Australian women's perspectives have used traditional Western methodologies and have often been felt by the women themselves to be inappropriate and ineffective in gathering information and promoting discussion. This research arose from the indigenous women themselves, and resulted in the exploration of using yarning as a methodology. Yarning is a conversational process that involves the sharing of stories and the development of knowledge. It prioritizes indigenous ways of communicating, in that it is culturally prescribed, cooperative, and respectful. The authors identify different types of yarning that are relevant throughout their research, and explain two types of yarning-family yarning and cross-cultural yarning-which have not been previously identified in research literature. This project found that yarning as a research method is appropriate for community-based health research with indigenous Australian women. This may be an important finding for health professionals and researchers to consider when working and researching with indigenous women from other countries.

“…Indigenous Peoples have been conducting research-systematically advancing human knowledge and understanding-for millennia (Luarkie, 2017;Tuhiwai Smith, 1999). Indigenous intellectual traditions are diverse, profound, and foundationally different from mainstream research paradigms (Warrior, 1999). Indigenous research recognizes relational responsibility between the researcher and creation, can be empirical, draws on traditional teachings, and may include explicit spiritual or revelatory elements (Brant Castellano, 2000;Luarkie, 2017;Wilson, 2001).…”

“…Indigenous research recognizes relational responsibility between the researcher and creation, can be empirical, draws on traditional teachings, and may include explicit spiritual or revelatory elements (Brant Castellano, 2000;Luarkie, 2017;Wilson, 2001). Warrior (1999) provocatively suggests that Indigenous thought is fundamentally based on topos (place or territory), whereas Western research paradigms are predicated on logos (reason). The centrality of territory to Indigenous thought is also emphasized by Sheridan and Longboat (2006) who specify that imagination is not an abstract concept but rather emerges from, and is inextricably connected to, place.…”

Federally funded research in Canada is of significant scope and scale. The implications of research in the colonial project has resulted in a fraught relationship between Indigenous Peoples and Western research. Research governance, as an aspect of public administration, is evolving. The relationality inherent in new public governance (NPG)—a nascent public governance regime—may align with Indigenous relationality concepts. Recent societal advances, such as the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), the Truth and Reconcilliation Commission of Canada (TRC), and the Indigenous Institutes Act in Ontario, provide further impetus for Indigenous self-determination in multiple domains including research. This article advocates for Indigenous research sovereignty and concludes with suggestions for ways in which federal funding agencies, specifically the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC), could contribute to the advancement of Indigenous research sovereignty.

“…(See Fredericks, 2008 for an overview of the method and selection of supervisors). Twenty Aboriginal women participated in in-depth, semi-structured, face-to-face interviews in a participatory-action research process, which incorporated the principles of an Indigenous methodology as put forward by Rigney (2001), the decolonising concepts asserted by Smith (1999), and intellectual sovereignty discussed by Warrior (1999). In addition, the process drew heavily from the field of ethnography (Bowling 1997;Creswell 1998).…”

Indigenous participation in employment has long been seen as an indicator of Indigenous economic participation in Australia. Researchers have linked participation in employment to improved health outcomes, increased education levels and greater self-esteem. There has been a dramatic increase in the number of Indigenous workforce policies and employment strategies as employers and industries attempt to employ more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Coupled with this has been a push to employ more Indigenous people in specific sectors to address the multiple layers of disadvantage experienced by Indigenous people, for example, the health sector. This paper draws on interview discussions with Aboriginal women in Rockhampton, Central Queensland, along with findings from the research of others to offer a greater understanding of the mixed benefits of increased Indigenous employment. What is demonstrated is that the nature of Indigenous employment is complex and not as simple as ‘just getting a job’.
