| Co-production of knowledge |
Co-production of knowledge occurs between two knowledge systems, such as Indigenous Knowledge and Science. There are key points that the two must come together - developing the question, methods, etc., checking back in to re-evaluate the process, and analysis. Throughout this process no one person's information or knowledge is more significant than another person's information or knowledge. Analysis of information occurs between and through both knowledge systems together. |
