Title: Building relationships with researchers conducting community-based research in Indigenous communities

Description of the presentation:
This is a chance to "meet" two researchers working in Maskwacis.
Their goal is to answer your questions about how they (and other researchers) do their work - these are some possible questions:
• How did the researchers become "researchers"?
• How do they decide what research to do?  
• How do they work with the community to do the research?
• What community members are involved in steering the research?
• What is the role of Elders in the research?
• What does a research participant do?
• How can community members influence the research?
• What happens to the information that is collected?
• How is the information used for the benefit of the community?
And any other questions you might wish to ask.
