International Indigenous Policy Journal

International Indigenous Policy Journal IIPJ is a peer-reviewed, policy-relevant research journal addressing issues pertaining to Indigenous Peoples throughout the world.

IIPJ is a peer-reviewed, policy-relevant research journal addressing issues pertaining to Indigenous peoples throughout the world. IIPJ has a very specific set of goals:

1. To promote evidence based policymaking.

2. To encourage quality research based on partnerships with Indigenous peoples.

3. To develop networks of policy researchers and policy makers, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous, and

their communities.

4. To improve scholarship related to Indigenous issues.

5. To spark debate on important policy issues facing countries and peoples around the world. At its founding, we felt it was an important time to take up the development of IIPJ because we saw growing similarity in the challenges facing Indigenous peoples worldwide and yet no dedicated peer-reviewed forum for discussion of these challenges. Whether we look at health, educational attainment, development, social welfare, or any of the many key issues facing peoples of this world, we find important and common concerns being expressed by Indigenous peoples and their communities. This Journal aims to expose the policy issues related to these concerns by encouraging and giving expression to the very best research, which can then be used as an evidence base to guide policy making. We are also concerned that research and policy be developed in an ethical manner by taking into direct consideration needs and concerns of the peoples themselves.
