Abstracts

We are calling for abstracts for the 4th Indigenous Nursing Research for Health Equity Summit 2024, in Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand.

The Summit aims to share research findings and approaches that address the health and wellbeing of Indigenous, First Nations, and Aboriginal populations. The Summit enables Indigenous nurses, healthcare workers, community knowledge holders, and researchers to connect, network, share, and reflect on research ideas and issues affecting Indigenous wellbeing and equity. It also provides opportunities to learn from each other and to network with researchers actively working to improve the health and lives of Indigenous peoples.

Faculty, community members, and postgraduate and undergraduate students are encouraged to submit abstracts for review.

Presentations are invited that report transformative praxis or research that addresses:

Any research related to the health and wellbeing and healthcare spectrum conducted with Indigenous, First Nations, Aboriginal or Native populations (such as Māori, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, First Nations, Inuit, Métis, or Pacific Nations or Native American peoples).

Indigenous research methodologies that aim to get our Indigenous stories and realities right or applying Indigenous research and transformative praxis.

Research conducted with other (non-Indigenous, non-Native) underserved groups or on an under-researched phenomenon – note, these abstracts must address how the approach or outcomes could apply to Indigenous, First Nations, Aboriginal or Native peoples.
