“…Such practices contrast with reductionist western concepts of science that value reproducibility, encourage structural sameness and discourage deviation from pre‐determined norms 48 . Academic research structures can embrace wise practices through commitment to the local context, sustaining local relationships and collaborative practices that are fluid and dynamic over time, and by reconsidering how the work of researchers and academics are evaluated and recognised 48,49 . This might include a shift away from prioritising measures regarding academic publications and awards to valuing community‐based actions and relationships that are foundational to praxis in health professional education research.…”

“…Sayal and colleagues favour the notion of ‘wise practice’ over ‘best practice’ as this approach considers the diversity of Indigenous peoples, removes hierarchical approaches to knowledge, and advocates against the translocation of one research approach into a different setting without local community consultation 20 .

IntroductionHealth and self‐determination are recognised as universal human rights. Health professional education research and practice hold the capacity to prioritise values, worldviews and agendas that envisage sustainable and equitable futures for the entire community served. This paper explores the need for the co‐location of Indigenous research paradigms in health professional education research and teaching. Indigenous communities have a long history of science, research and sustainable living and are holders of ways of knowing, being and doing that can shape actions and priorities in health research that value equity and sustainability.DiscussionKnowledge construction in health professional education research does not occur in isolation nor is it value neutral. A continued dominance of the biomedical approach to health creates a system of innovation that is unbalanced and unable to deliver health outcomes demanded by contemporary society. As power and hierarchies are embedded in health professional education research and praxis, transformative action is required to bring forth marginalised voices in research processes. Critical reflexivity regarding the ontological, epistemological, axiological and methodological positioning of researchers is an important step towards creating and sustaining research structures that effectively value and co‐locate different perspectives in knowledge production and translation.ConclusionWorking towards more equitable and sustainable futures for Indigenous and non‐Indigenous communities requires health care systems to be informed and guided by different knowledge paradigms. This can work to avoid the ongoing reproduction of inefficient biomedical structures and purposefully disrupt the status quo of health inequities. Realising this requires the effective co‐location of Indigenous research paradigms and ways of working into health professional education research that centre relationality, wholism, interconnectedness and self‐determination. This calls for a raising of the critical consciousness of health professional education research academies.

In this paper, we argue that Indigenous data sovereignty (IDS) is vital for addressing threats to ecosystems, as well as for Indigenous Peoples re-establishing and maintaining sovereignty over their territories. Indigenous knowledge-holders face pressure from non-Indigenous scientists to collaborate to address environmental problems, while the open data movement is pressuring them to make their data public. We examine the role of IDS in the context of cumulative effects and climate change that threaten salmon-bearing ecosystems in British Columbia, guided by content from an online workshop in June 2022 and attended exclusively by a Tier-1 audience (First Nations knowledge-holders and/or technical staff working for Nations). Attention to data is required for fruitful collaborations between Indigenous communities and non-Indigenous researchers to address the impacts of climate change and the cumulative effects affecting salmon-bearing watersheds in BC. In addition, we provide steps that Indigenous governments can take to assert sovereignty over data, recommendations that external researchers can use to ensure they respect IDS, and questions that external researchers and Indigenous partners can discuss to guide decision-making about data management. Finally, we reflect on what we learned during the process of co-creating materials.
