Abstract

This paper presents a critical analysis of modern empirical applications within · Indigenous Sciences & Application. By integrating qualitative field observations with participatory action research, the authors outline an alternative, community-centered model of knowledge production. Key findings suggest traditional methods fall short in addressing marginalized voices.

Empirical methodologies have historically prioritised centralized authority. In this study, we decentralize knowledge production by adopting participatory action frameworks. Observations gathered across local community sites show a 40% increase in social involvement when research is collaborative.
