Published purpose

This Yukon-based project aims to establish a Yukon Network Environment for Indigenous Health Research (Yukon NEIHR), led by Yukon First Nations (YFN) Elders, scholars, and community researchers. It will strengthen YFN-led health research by creating space for collaboration on shared priorities, ethics, training, and governance rooted in YFN knowledge and values. POLAR funding will support engagement with YFN communities to guide the development of research methods, mentorship, and training for future Indigenous health researchers.
