Commitment
QUT's Reconciliation Statement contains the following commitment in relation
to research.
In consultation with Indigenous Australian people, QUT will:
- encourage appropriate and beneficial research of Indigenous issues,
ensuring the research is developed in partnership with Indigenous communities
and is conducted in accordance with relevant Indigenous protocols and
ethical guidelines.
Progress
- The University has a well-developed capacity to pioneer specific research
methods in areas of concern for Indigenous Australians, and the University's
various research committees are currently considering further implementation
strategies to realise this commitment.
- The development of protocols and ethics relating to Indigenous research
should be underpinned by a thoughtful approach to Indigenous knowledge
frameworks. Professor Martin Nakata’s address to QUT has been
followed up with specific workshops with Oodgeroo Unit staff to explore
this area.
