"Ethics matters: The Processing of Indigenous Research in Higher Education seeks to investigate the inclusivity of Indigenous issues and involvement of Indigenous education centres, in the assessment of Indigenous research proposals, in terms of ethics and the use of appropriate protocols. The study focuses on four Indigenous centres in higher education institutions, one Indigenous research institute and one exclusively Indigenous higher education institution. In this way a variety of approaches are examined, from those operating within broader umbrella institutions to those operating more autonomously. The project is also interested in the influence that the Indigenous centres may have on their umbrella institutions on the one hand, and the influence of the umbrella institution on the Indigenous centres, on the other."--p. 3.
