Indigenous Scholarship. Indigenous Scholarship is defined as research in any field or discipline that is conducted by, grounded in, or engaged with, First Nations, Inuit, Métis or other Indigenous nations, communities, societies or individuals, and their wisdom, cultures, experiences or knowledge systems, as expressed in their dynamic forms, past and present. Indigenous research can embrace the intellectual, physical, emotional and/or spiritual dimensions of knowledge in creative and interconnected relationships with people, places and the natural environment. Whatever the methodologies or perspectives that apply in a given context, researchers who conduct Indigenous research, whether they are Indigenous or non-Indigenous themselves, commit to respectful relationships with all Indigenous peoples and communities. Research by and with Indigenous peoples and communities emphasizes and values their existing strengths, assets and knowledge systems. When evaluating research, special qualifications and contributions shall be considered including: development and sharing of Indigenous knowledge and languages; engagement with culturally appropriate research and publication venues; community service; and any other relevant considerations, including lived experiences within Aboriginal communities. Indigenous research can incorporate Indigenous knowledge systems (including ontologies, epistemologies and methodologies) and is recognized as a primary category of scholarly contribution. Scholarly activity consists of oral presentations at workshops, seminars, lectures and/or participation in traditional ceremonies and other activities that lead to the generation of new knowledge about or within the particular field or a new field about which the candidate is knowledgeable.
