Description
Study conducted with 93 residents of Seattle, Washington looked at levels of economic, social and psychological adjustment, and correlations between those variables and length of residence and strength of cultural identity.
Brief discussion of ten areas which have been underdeveloped in the urban context: consultation, community access and decision-making; community ethical review; intellectual property rights and data management, data gathering, storytelling and consent-seeking; capacity building and mentorship; nurturing authentic research relationships; multi-sited and multi-jurisdictional research; and self-determination, sovereignty and community empowerment.
Discusses historical and contemporary reasons for migration to urban centres, the lack recognition of an urban presence based on the belief that identity and cities are incompatible because Indigeneity is solely defined by a relationship to the land, and how this attitude, coupled with government policy, has resulted in the lack of culturally appropriate supports and services available.
