Participatory evaluation research (PER) is a research method that promotes decolonization among remote First Nations communities.

As colonization worked to expunge First Nations cultural values from western mainstream knowledge, PER constructs new meaning derived from First Nations world perspectives. The present study explores the initial stages of implementing PER in a remote northern Ontario First Nations community.
