Abstract
Objectives: With a better understanding of northern Indigenous risk perceptions related to food safety, this research aims to identify the role that Indigenous knowledge can play in risk assessment and management processes in order to support and ensure more culturally relevant and effective benefit-risk management strategies. Study design: This work is a part of a circumpolar review that is conducting case study evaluations in four regions on the topic of Indigenous environmental health benefit-risk assessment and communication in relation to contaminant exposure through the consumption of traditional/country foods. Methods: This project examines a series of events and communities in Yukon Territory, Canada. Forty-one interviews with traditional food experts (TFE) and environment and health decision-makers (HEDM) were conducted and analysed for thematic content. The research also included an extensive document review. Results: Overall, people are confident in their own ways of determining the safety of food items. This is predominately based on physical indicators. Of the HEDM interviewees, there were varied levels of experience for including traditional knowledge in risk management; 45% had direct experience, 36% had experience in other aspects of research and 18% had no direct experience. All interviewees discussed collaboration as a valuable process for effective risk management. Conclusions: â??Effective risk management" is dictated by the effort given to include the affected communities or populations. Yukon First Nations have their own way for determining food safety, and these methods and perceptions need to be considered in the framing of risk issues and from the initial stages of the management process. True collaboration is crucial for effectiveness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To provide health researchers and clinicians with background information and examples regarding Aboriginal health research challenges, in an effort to promote effective collaborative research with Aboriginal communities. METHODS: An interdisciplinary team of experienced Aboriginal-health researchers conducted a thematic analysis of their planning meetings regarding a community-based Aboriginal health research training project and of the text generated by the meetings and supplemented the analysis with a literature review. RESULTS: Four research challenges are identified and addressed: (1) contrasting frameworks of Western science and Indigenous knowledge systems; (2) the impact of historic colonialist processes upon the interface between health science research and Aboriginal communities; (3) culturally relevant frameworks and processes for knowledge generation and knowledge transfer; and (4) Aboriginal leadership, governance, and participation. CONCLUSION: Culturally appropriate and community-controlled collaborative research can result in improved health outcomes in Aboriginal communities and contribute new insights and perspectives to the fields of public health and medicine in general.

Abstract
This article describes the process of the Vancouver Coastal Health's Aboriginal Health Practice Council (AHPC) who provide policy direction to Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH). The AHPC operates within unceded territories in what is now known as British Columbia, Canada. The council consists of Aboriginal Elders, knowledge keepers, community members, and VCH staff who work collaboratively to develop and implement best health care practices for Aboriginal people. Working within local Indigenous protocols to create policy for service delivery this council operates under the assumption that to improve health outcomes it is incumbent for VCH to create appropriate methods of access to Aboriginal health practices. The council facilitates Aboriginal leadership in policy development informing health care practitioners on how they can support Aboriginal clients' right to culturally appropriate Aboriginal health care services. The article describes the processes employed by the Aboriginal Health Practice Council. These processes offer a methodology for non-Indigenous organizations serving Aboriginal peoples to implement Indigenous community-based research principles, protocols, and practices central in the provision of effective, culturally appropriate health care.
