Title Relationality in First Nations Research and Performing Arts Practices
Creator Contributors
Abstract/Description The academy has a legacy of unethical practice when researching First Nations communities (who I will also refer to as Mob) in so-called Australia, choosing a ‘research on’ as opposed to a ‘research with’ approach, removing any opportunity for agency, self-determination, well-being and safety of communities and individuals. Because white researchers have been the narrators of First Nations Peoples representation, these enduring misconceptions of Mob and their communities has affected how First Nations People are treated by decision makers, and society, and how they/we are represented in the performing arts. Through using collaborative Yarning as a research method, there is a greater opportunity for First Nations self-determination in research, and by extension, greater representation of us.
