As depicted through Mithaka’s research goal and objectives, we view research as a practice that collaborates with Mithaka Traditional Owners to manage Traditional Knowledge so that it benefts our Country, Culture and our People. Our Culture and knowledge is inherently connected to the landscapes and skyscapes around us, and for generations our People have studied and recorded Traditional Knowledge through our own research systems. For Mithaka, we consider both traditional and western knowledge systems critical and complementary in any research.breitlIng replica uk

We understand that other researchers will work across a spectrum of relevance,fake watches for sale Cultural understanding and engagement with Mithaka Traditional Owners. However, this should not get in the way of working together to create mutually benefcial outcomes and respect the rights, interests and needs of all involved.panerai replica uk

Implementing Research the Mithaka Way

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”]Mithaka Aboriginal Corporation’s Research Framework ensures that all stages of research are transparent and accountable, and supported by Mithaka governance and continuous communication between Traditional Owners and their research partners.

Over the next fve years, resourcing research will be dependent on a variety of internal and external factors. A flexible process will assess resources against the timeframes of research and Mithaka rights and interests. Sustainable partnerships with researchers, research institutions, governments and private sector will also support building capacities in accessing alternative resources that can beneft Mithaka People.

Mithaka see research as a continuous process that uses knowledge created to feed into new research work, and influenced by learning from the continuous growth of their Native Title Group and the societies within which they live. By reviewing research outcomes, both during and after projects, Mithaka are able to assess information produced and apply it to future research opportunities. This cyclical process will also provide important contributions to the next strategic phase of research.

To ensure that Traditional Owner’s rights are continuously addressed, this framework exists as a living document that can be developed as Mithaka research work expands and through culturally sensitive governance systems put in place by MAC.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]
