Negotiating Research Relationships with Inuit Communities: A Guide for Researchers

This wonderful resource was developed to improve the process of negotiating research relationships with Inuit communities in Canada. The guide specifically aims to help researchers understand community concerns and expectations; the benefits, opportunities and challenges associated with engaging Inuit communities in research; determine appropriate levels of community involvement in various research stages; initiate contact and begin negotiating a relationship; clarify processes and timelines; and choose appropriate and effective means to communicate research results to communities.  Click here to download.
