Traditional methods of imparting knowledge are known as yarning to Australian Aboriginal Elders and talking circles to North American First Nations peoples. Yarning is a relational methodology for transferring Indigenous knowledge. This article describes an emerging research methodology with yarning at its core, which provides respect and honour in a culturally safe environment. Yarning is highly structured, with protocols and principles providing participants control over the process and their stories. The methodology is embedded in a yarning space, which is framed by six protocols and seven principles. The protocols are gift, control, freedom, space, inclusiveness and gender specificity, and the principles are reciprocity, responsibility, relationship, dignity, equality, integrity and self-determination—to protect participants, stories and data. This is ensured through respectful and honouring relationships, responsibility and accountability between participants. The key camps in which the yarning journey is segmented are the Ancestors, protocols, principles, connections, data, analysis, processing and reporting, and the wider community.

作为受保护的空间警告：原则和协议

传统的传授知识的方法被称为向澳大利亚原住民长者讲故事，向北美原住民提供谈话圈子。纱线是一种转移土著知识的关系方法。本文介绍了一种以纱线为核心的新兴研究方法，该方法在文化安全的环境中提供了尊重和荣誉。纱线是高度结构化的，具有协议和原则，可为参与者提供对过程及其故事的控制。该方法被嵌入到一个纱线空间中，该空间由六个协议和七个原理构成。协议是天赋，控制，自由，空间，包容性和性别特异性，原则是互惠，责任，关系，尊严，平等，正直和自决，以保护参与者，故事和数据。参与者之间相互尊重和尊重的关系，责任和问责制可确保这一点。细分纱线生产过程的主要阵营是祖先，协议，原则，联系，数据，分析，处理和报告以及更广泛的社区。
