Abstract

Technology of the twenty-first century has transformed our ability to create, modify, store, and share digital media and, in so doing, has presented new possibilities for how social science research can be conducted and mobilized. This paper introduces the use of collaborative podcasting as a research method of critical inquiry and knowledge mobilization. Using a case study, we describe the methodological process that our transdisciplinary team engaged in to create the Water Dialogues podcast, a collaborative initiative stemming from a larger research project examining approaches to implementing Indigenous and Western knowledge in water research and management. We situate collaborative podcasting within an expanding field of collaborative and participatory media practice in social research, and consider how the method may align with and support research within a decolonizing agenda.

Abstract

Conventional approaches to water research and governance often fail to meaningfully engage and mobilize Indigenous peoples’ perspectives, values, and knowledge in addressing water-related concerns. This research introduces the use of collaborative podcasting as a methodological approach, applied in the context of this work to explore First Nations, Inuit, and Métis perspectives around how we live with, and relate to, water in Canada; and what the inclusion of these perspectives mean for water policy and research. Data were collected during a National Water Gathering event through sharing circle dialogue and participant interviews (n=18), and contributed to the creation of an audio-documentary podcast. Thematic analysis revealed key themes relating to: responsibilities to water; confronting colonialism; and pathways to mobilizing diverse knowledge systems. Findings from this work illustrate how relationships with, and responsibilities to, water are being sustained, reclaimed, and renewed by Indigenous people, and the value and power inherent in such actions.
