ABSTRACT
This chapter draws on southern understandings of language (1) to discuss Indigenous research methodologies as an ethical approach to examining the language practices of Indigenous communities and (2) to share examples from our own experience of researching Indigenous language revitalization. The particular camp context began 15 years ago and has since evolved into an annual gathering of language activists, both teachers and learners. This chapter examines the following research question: What are the experiences of adult participants in a land-based nēhiyawēwin immersion camp? The researchers draw on their research experiences in this camp to address knowledge production in Indigenous language revitalization.
