Health research involving First Nations, Inuit and Métis children and their communities.
Canadian and international guidelines address the ethical conduct of health research in general and the issues affecting Indigenous populations in particular. This statement summarizes, for clinicians and researchers, relevant ethical and practical considerations for health research involving Aboriginal children and youth. ⋯ Expanding our knowledge of ways to address the health disparities facing Canada's Aboriginal children and youth can inform health policy and the provision of services. Community-based participatory research is proposed as a means to achieve this goal.
