| Summary: | policies and procedures, which were developed in 1996 and revised in 2004 in response to an increase in requests for approval for research on the people of the Navajo Nation. Although this protocol is specifi c to the Navajo Nation, it illustrates the level of circum-spection needed when conducting research with indigenous populations. (See Navajo Nation Human Research Review Board, 2008, for related additional documents.) Tribal research policies and protocols are derived from the ethical principles and legal protections inherent in the rights of indigenous nations (Assembly of First Nations, 2007; Sahota, 2007). The Navajo Nation (NN) has exercised its sovereignty by vesting a tribal board with the authority to review, approve or deny, and oversee human research involving tribal members. bapp08.indd 441 7/31/08 8:32:06 PM 442 Community-Based Participatory Research for Health |
