Community Research Questions and Governance

€8.00

Some of the most important research decisions happen before anyone chooses an instrument. This discussion guide makes room for a different question, a different timetable, or a decision not to proceed. It is written for people examining the purpose and responsibilities of a proposal, rather than seeking a faster route to approval.

Ivalu Petersen organises the conversation around concerns, appropriate authority, resources, information control, and accountable follow-up. A clearly fictional water-monitoring scenario opens several possible routes, including using existing information or addressing a service problem without new collection. Tables help surface unresolved decisions instead of making agreement look tidier than it is.

The guide draws on Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami’s National Inuit Strategy on Research and retains its specific Inuit Nunangat context. It does not speak for Inuit, treat communities as one viewpoint, or offer a universal Indigenous protocol. Attendance, silence, and a completed worksheet are never presented as permission.

Format: one print-friendly A4 PDF with selectable text, discussion prompts, an authority map, and a resource conversation sheet. This is not a consent checklist, template agreement, consultation record, or substitute for local governance and ethical processes.

Demonstration item: Still North is fictional. The price is illustrative; no payment, order, or fulfilment is offered.
