Supporting Indigenous Researchers: A Practical Guide for Supervisors
 A new guidebook aimed at improving the supervision, recruitment and training of Indigenous researchers has been published by the CRC for Aboriginal Health
Based on interviews with both Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers Supporting Indigenous Researchers: A Practical Guide for Supervisorsoffers practical ways of improving the capacity of Indigenous health researchers to identify, design, implement and conduct high quality health research.
Written over a number of years the book reflects the CRC for Aboriginal Health view that sustainable improvements in Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander health will only be possible with serious investments in developing a strong Indigenous health workforce.
The book is divided into two parts with Part 1 including tips for building a reciprocal and supportive supervisor–researcher relationship and a strong intercultural research team.
Part 2 offers practical strategies and resources to guide research supervisors in day-to-day processes, including job planning and recruitment, induction, work planning and performance appraisal. It explains how to determine training needs, and how to design and support the training and professional development of emerging Indigenous researchers.
