In the context of Indigenous health, this is particularly important so that researchers can respond to the priorities of the Indigenous communities being studied and conduct research in a manner that is compatible with the interests of the Indigenous communities. It also allows research to be conducted in a manner that respects Indigenous cultural values and beliefs.<\/em><\/p><cite>Source: O\u2019Brien et al.
