Research Ethics Protocols & Guidelines

Researchers, government and others have often heard from First Nations that “we have been researched to death.” First Nations communities also often express concern over the way research is conducted in their communities and territories, including:

• Lack of respect for First Nations’ protocol and cultural practices; 
• Research projects that are not planned with full community input and direction; 
• Lack of reporting back to the community on research results; 
• No follow through on results – what happens next? How will the research help address problems communities are facing?
