Description
Júlia Campos Clímaco and colleagues report an early evaluation of Indigenous engagement in research in Northern British Columbia in a 2026 paper. Indigenous peoples remain under-represented in Canadian research, and rural engagement guidance is thin. Deep work with rural and remote Indigenous communities surfaced their research aims, system barriers and the principles they require for partnership. Trust, reciprocity and respect count as working conditions, not slogans.
The result is a co-created, culturally grounded framework with hands-on steps for researchers and institutions. Community-led paths and decolonizing practice run through the advice given. Health equity is framed as bound up with who sets questions and owns decisions. The study offers lessons that travel for research far beyond one province.
