Description
Summary:In this article, grounded into the Canadian context and into the ongoing reconciliation process between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Peoples, our intent is to discuss a collaborative research involving both a Métis Elder and a group of school teachers. On the one hand, we discuss the complementarities and practicalities implied by the collaboration between the researcher and a specific teacher involved in the research. On the other end, we discuss how the researcher can support building a bridge between local school and Indigenous communities. This text aims to highlight a few complex articulations between teacher and academic knowledge, as well as between Western and Indigenous postures, emphasizing the principle of complementarity and the importance of ethical practices.
