This toolkit is for community members, healthcare providers, or researchers who are working in the area of genetics/genomics in academic, policy, community, or practice-based settings.

The toolkit aims to assist interested parties in understanding optimal research practices and how to ensure the safety of Indigenous people engaged in research. We also hope to assist emerging researchers as they consider best practices for conducting genetic/genomic research in partnership with Indigenous Peoples.

This page is constantly evolving to reflect new and emerging information. As we learn from experiences, communities, Elders, and knowledge keepers, we strive to work together and share our perspectives.
