Description:Affirming Methodologies: Research and Education in the Caribbean centers local and indigenous ways of knowing in research and education praxis in the Caribbean. The research methodologies and pedagogies are presented in this book within an Affirming Methodologies framework. They bring forward localised epistemologies whereby Caribbean ways of being and knowing are affirmed, and the expected Western hierarchies between researcher and researched are removed.The chapters present approaches to knowledge construction and knowledge sharing based on practices, lived experiences, traditions, language patterns and rituals of Caribbean communities. The importance of an Affirming Methodologies approach is demonstrated, and the characteristics of culturally affirming research methodologies and pedagogies in diverse environments including Cuba, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica and the Caribbean diaspora in Aotearoa New Zealand and Canada are explored and presented. Grounded on an understanding of the authors' Caribbean positionality, ontological distinctions within the Caribbean research context are considered. This book moves forward from a decolonizing methodology approach whereby the chapters are written, not in opposition to, or tested against Eurocentric approaches to research, but deeply rooted in a Caribbean ethos.This book will engage researchers (both qualitative and quantitative), postgraduate students, academics, practitioners, policy makers, community workers, and lay persons who seek to employ culturally relevant local and indigenous research approaches in their work.
