Abstract
Understanding [Indigenous] worldviews of both the targeted [Indigenous] community and ourselves is imperative if we are going to do more good than harm (Bishop etal., 2002). This opening statement by Indigenous scholars in the field of research and education underpins the importance of this chapter. Here, we ground ourselves with the imperative to create and re-create more good than harm for our Indigenous peoples and communities. Like other areas, the youth justice field has evolved over the years, with more inclusive and engaging practices woven to fit the demographics of the system. Even with these changes, Indigenous peoples continue to face systemic and epistemic injustice, with many practices and processes culturally insensitive or unsafe.
