Te Kotahi Research Institute, University of Waikato. https://doi.org/10.15663/210920.6511https://hdl.handle.net/10289/18328Research reciprocity represents a deep commitment to partnership with Indigenous communities in research collaborations. It emphasises the need for not only benefit sharing but also power sharing across the broader research lifecycle encompassing both upstream and downstream activities. Research reciprocity is inherently relational with a focus on distributing resources, opportunities, decision-making and control in an equitable manner. Research reciprocity combines the ethics and community engagement that inform equity in ‘International research collaborations’, the issue of trust and social responsibility aligned to ‘Responsible Research and Innovation’, the knowledge translation intent associated with ‘Research Impact’, and the concept of Fair and Equitable Benefit Sharing enshrined in the Nagoya Protocol; and brings them into dialogue with Indigenous aspirations for research partnerships including self-determination, cultural centredness, Indigenous data sovereignty, community wellbeing, and capacity building.enReport10.15663/210920.6511
