Indigenous Community Research Partnerships
"Indigenous Community Research Partnerships (ICRP) is an online open education training resource. It is designed to assist researchers who are new to research in partnerships with Inuit, Métis and First Nations (“Indigenous”) communities, or who are researchers-in-training, to:
Operationalize required regulatory policy requirements and research directives;
Ensure equitable inclusion of Indigenous and Western-oriented knowledge in research systems;
And, in the case of Indigenous-specific enquiry, to privilege or give primacy to Indigenous ways of knowing and doing" [3]

In June 2019, Dr. Margo Greenwood of the National Collaborating Centre for Indigenous Health and Dr. Radha Jetty of the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario delivered a presentation at the Canadian Pediatric Society Annual Conference in Toronto: “Partners in Reconciliation: Health care leaders working together as allies in Indigenous health”. These three short videos (3 minutes) help to provide guidance on how to be an effective ally.
