ƒ??After 200 of years of active Arctic research, Inuit knowledge holders are still concerned about the type of research occurring in Inuit Nunaat. There is a lack of communication with communities, lack of engagement with Indigenous Knowledge holders as research partners and little use of Indigenous Knowledge in evidence based decision making. Communities want to be part of the process, contribute their knowledge to evidence based decision making and will do what is necessary to protect the Arctic, our food and our well-beingƒ? The Inuit Circumpolar Council supports the Arctic Observing Summit Conference Statement, which includes a call for the development of international principles, protocols and mechanisms that establish ethical guidelines for research, are built on trust, involve Arctic Indigenous Knowledge holders, and use of Indigenous Knowledge.

1. Community Involvement in Research Design
-Involve local indigenous people in the development of research protocols.
-Involve local indigenous people in prioritizing and conducting research and involving them as coprincipal investigators.
-Develop research protocols concerning:
1. Exploitation when local people are research subjects
2. Compensation to locals for time and expertise
3. Indigenous intellectual property rights concerning individual and community knowledge
4. Ownership of research and data, before and after
5. How research is to be used
o Use of research as an advocacy tool for Native rights and values and hold agencies accountable to public processƒ??ƒ??agencies are our tools.ƒ?
o Give research results back to the communityƒ??what is the best way?
o Consider the difficulties of small communities with limited staff who have multiple community responsibilities and who donƒ??t have time, expertise, money or technical resources to submit competitive proposals.
-Involve traditional knowledge and wisdom in design and conduct of research, i.e., caribou monitoring and food web research
-Foster awareness that Native health and ecosystem health are linked.
-Do research year-round and focus on whole systems.
-Understand changes in core values from ƒ??weƒ? to ƒ??Iƒ? and the impact it will have on the future (this shift from ƒ??communityƒ? to ƒ??individualƒ? changes who we are and could destroy the culture).
2. Education
-Make it culturally meaningful by involving local people in educating youth in schools.
-Involve schools/students/communities in research.
-Create communication between agencies and schools, students and communities regarding internships.
-Consider providing National Science Foundation scholarships directly to students.
Challenges
1. Communication and the Research Process
-Accuracy of local information
-Communicating research results to the community
2. Continuity in Research
-Agency coordination
-Local involvement in the research process
-Cyclical versus year-round, long-term research
Recommendation for Research Projects
1. Arctic Social Science
-Impact of social economic trends upon the local indigenous peoplesƒ?? traditional ways of life.
-Comparison of historic Native ways of life today:
2. Atmospheric Research
-Global changes and the impact/relationship to the arctic ecosystems, i.e., animal migration, water way and climate changes.
-Research the connections between global systems and local health.
-Changes in caribou migration and health.
-Lights in the sky above several Native communities: Noatak, Kobuk, Siriniki (Russia).
-Boundary and weather pattern shifts as reflected in changes and impacts to localized arctic ecosystems:
3. Climate Change
-Understand how communities learn to adapt or respond to change.
-Document local observations of change.
-Study impacts of global change on local systems.
-Participate in and influence policy decisions in worldwide discussions on climate change.
-Recognize and influence economic and cultural impacts of climate change, i.e., relocating Shishmaref, Kivalina.
-Provide information and education to youth and communities on conditions because of climate change.
4. Earth Science Research
-Effect of global ecosystem changes upon local arctic ecosystems.
-Exploration of changes in the local ecosystem, i.e., caribou migration, oceanographic changes and the corresponding relationship between the changes and the health of local indigenous people.
-Impact of water, sewer, and solid waste installations in remote arctic villages on local ecosystems.
-Respond to community concerns such as why wildlife populations are fluctuating and abnormalities are observed, e.g., whitefish having worms.
5. Oceanography Research
-Impact on preserving the traditional Native way of life, from retaining cultural traditions to physical impact upon communities, as influenced by:
--Changes in water temperatures
--Current and channel changes
--Water depths
--Migration changes
--Quality, quantity and availability of fish:

1. Rationale
2. Implications for Research
3. Protocols
4. Principles
5. Ethics
2.2 Partnership: Where Nuu-chah-nulth-aht are participants in research and have a major interest in the outcome of a research project, then a working relationship should be established between the researcher and the participants or representatives of the participating community(ies).
2.3 Protection: The researcher must ensure the protection of Nuu-chahnulth-aht participants and resources prior to the onset of research, during data collection and compilation, during and after dissemination of data.
2.4 Participation: All Nuu-chah-nulth-aht have a right to participate in or refuse participation in research. Reasons for inclusion and exclusion in research must be clearly outlined prior to onset of research. Participants must be given adequate time (24 hour minimum) to consider their participation in the research and must be permitted to withdraw participation at any time without consequences.
3 PROTOCOLS
Nuu-chah-nulth-aht have protocols unique to their communities. These protocols differ from community to community. It is the responsibility of the researcher to
identify these protocols through consultation with appropriate community members.
3.1 Community Contacts
3.2 Hawiih:
3.3 Elected Council
3.4 Community Resources
4. PRINCIPLES
Any and all research proposed to be conducted with more than one Nuu-chahnulth community must apply for approval with the Nuu-chah-nulth Research Ethics Committee. Communities may choose to have the Nuu-chah-nulth
Research Ethics Committee review applications to conduct research in their individual community. The criteria for approval will be as follows:
4.1 The researcher(s) complete(s) the Nuu-chah-nulth Research Ethics Committee Application for Approval and:
4.2 The purpose of conducting research is clearly stated and indicates a benefit to Nuu-chah-nulth communities and:
4.3 That any risks associated with participation in the research are outweighed by definitive benefits and:
4.4 That there will be minimal disruption to the community as a result of conducting the research and:
4.5 That there is no deception involved in the research process.
4.6 That researchers, data collectors and any other individuals involved in the research process are clearly identified and their qualifications to conduct research are provided and:
4.7 That once the research is complete, the data will be disseminated to individual participants and participating communities in such a manner that is comprehensible and useful to those individuals and:
4.8 That the researcher has identified where ownership of the data rests and has indicated that Nuu-chah-nulth-aht will continue to retain at least partial ownership and have full rights to utilize that information obtained as a result of the research outcomes.
4.9 That a plan is clearly laid out regarding what will happen with the data collected once the research is complete.
5. ETHICS
The principles of conduct governing an individual or a group.
5.1 Respect for Persons: incorporates at least two ethical convictions:
5.1.1 Autonomy: individuals should be treated as autonomous agents. Individual is capable of deliberation about personal goals and of acting under the direction of such deliberation. The individual is permitted to enter into research voluntarily and with adequate information.
5.1.2 Protection: persons with diminished autonomy are entitled to protection. Not every human being is capable of self-determination. These individuals need to be protected and ensured that decisions are made in their best interest.
5.2 Beneficence: making an effort to secure the well-being of participants. Two general rules are associated with ensuring that this principle is upheld:
5.2.1 Do no harm.
5.2.2 Maximize possible benefits and minimize possible harms. This rule considers that learning what will benefit may require exposing persons to risk. The problem is to decide when it is justifiable to seek certain benefits despite the risks involved, and when the benefits should be foregone because of the risks.
5.3 Justice: refers to fairness in distribution or what is deserved and the idea that equals should be treated equally. The following formulations provide suggestions as to how burdens and benefits should be distributed:
5.3.1 To each person an equal share.
5.3.2 To each person according to individual need.
5.3.3 To each person according to individual effort.
5.3.4 To each person according to societal contribution.
5.3.5 To each person according to merit.
