ABSTRACT
PROBLEM:
An important aspect of the work that takes place in and across our Aboriginal Health and Ageing research group is about building partnerships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous people. Partnerships are created between colleagues and co-researchers as well as with community Elders, Aboriginal community-controlled organisations, community groups and associations and individuals.SETTING:
To fully realise this has required an introspective look at the way we function as a team of Aboriginal researchers and non-Indigenous researchers working together. It has challenged us to explore and determine our shared visions and shared outcomes and to develop strong, enduring and authentic partnerships by putting culture at the centre of everything we do. KEY MEASURES FOR IMPROVEMENT This wisdom-led approach has fostered the development of a shared narrative about research WITH Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and a shared language of research collaboration. STRATEGIES AND EFFECTS OF CHANGE This paper aims to provide an opportunity to reflect on the key elements of co-design which have underpinned our work together across cultures both within team and within community. LESSONS LEARNT This paper will provide lived examples of the co-design and co-creation process utilised by our team in working with community. It will further share a model which underpins these experiences. It provides a framework to refer to and reflect upon, which commits to working with shared respect, shared meaning, shared knowledge and an enriched experience of collaboratively working and walking and learning together.Palavras-chave
