My research involves social justice, Indigenous studies, and community development via participatory methodologies. As a fellow academic, you may find the implementation of Indigenous methodologies helpful for the respectful dissemination of knowledge. These resources may be helpful for understanding decolonial theory, embarking on academic research, and collaborating with communities on projects. It is my hope that this guide will give you a starting place to explore the growing field of methodologies.

This guide may help students and teachers interested in learning how to privilege indigenous knowledge. The resources I used in this pathfinder aim to stimulate a better understanding of how to privilege the voices, experiences and lives of Indigenous people and their homelands. These resources also identify the shortcomings in western research that have led to the creation of new methodologies. I selected the sources based on the criterion that it honors the significance of indigenous knowledge, promotes decolonizing and anti-oppressive approaches, or engages in participatory action research methods.
The purpose of this guide is to provide resources that point to a broad understanding of the creation of indigenous methodologies, clarify the main goals of engaging multiple worldviews, as well as practical examples of successful participatory research projects.
