Number 16: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander views on research in their communities 

November 2006 

by Robyn Penman

This paper is based on the minutes taken during extensive consultations with urban, regional and remote Indigenous communities across Australia during 2003–04 for Footprints in Time -The Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children. The goal of the consultations was to ensure that the research project was designed to genuinely benefit Indigenous people. The report contains all the comments made and questions asked by the participants in the consultation meetings.
