"Indigenous people and researchers:
building collaborative partnerships and the importance of responsibilities,
ethics, and values of research on the Navajo Nation"
The mission of the Navajo Nation Research Program is to support research that promotes and enhances the interests and the visions of the Navajo people: to encourage a mutual and beneficial partnership between the Navajo people and researchers; and to create an interface where different cultures, lifestyles, disciplines,, and ideologies can come together in a way that improves, promotes, and strengthens the health of the Navajo people.
The Navajo Nation Human Research Review Board (NNHRB) was developed in March 1996 to guarantee ethical research for the Diné people. We are pleased to announce the 2007 NNHRB Conference to be held September 25 & 26, 2007 at the Navajo Nation Museum in Window Rock, Arizona. A pre-conference workshop will also be held the evening of September 24 for 6:00 to 9:00 pm at the Navajo Nation Museum for all researchers to learn about the Navajo Nation Research Code and the expectations of the NNHRRB.
Conference participants are also eligible to apply for continuing education units from the University of New Mexico and continuing medical education credits from the University of Colorado. Representatives for each university will be present at the conference to receive your application.
