Indigenous/Indigenist Research Methodologies

The Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS) has created the Guidelines for Ethical Research in Australian Indigenous Studies (GERAIS) to ensure that research with and about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples follows a process of meaningful engagement and reciprocity between the researcher and the individuals and/or communities involved in the research (https://aiatsis.gov.au/sites/default/files/docs/research-and-guides/ethics/gerais.pdf). Discuss with the group why this was necessary?
