TARP 2019
TASSC is seeking the services of a research consultant / consultancy with an expertise in community engagement to deliver a revised Toronto Aboriginal Research Project: TARP 2019; highlighting a community plan for Toronto’s diverse Indigenous community.
The Request for Proposals can be found here along with more details.
TORONTO ABORIGINAL RESEARCH PROJECT (TARP) REPORT
The TARP Report consists of three volumes. The TARP: Final Report was released in November 2011. The TARP: Case Studies Report was released in 2013, and the third volume, TARP: Life History Report was released in 2014.
TARP Research Approach
From the very beginning, TARP was committed to a community-based research approach. There are two basic characteristics of this approach:
1. It involves Aboriginal community representatives assuming key decision-making roles in overseeing all aspects of the research. The TARP Report was overseen by the TARP Research Steering Committee.
2. The research is designed to be useful to the community.
Quantitative and Qualitative Research
The TARP Report uses a combination of quantitative and qualitative research approaches to gain a more complete understanding of the Toronto Indigenous community. Quantitative methods (survey questionnaire and structured interviews) are used in combination with qualitative methods (focus groups, life histories, case studies and Photovoice) to gain a broad-based in-depth understanding of the situation of Aboriginal people residing in Toronto.
How to Use the TARP Report
The TARP Report is organized around specific research topics, as set out by the TARP Steering Committee. Each topic forms a chapter. The TARP report is a resource for students, policy makers, government officials, Indigenous organizations, program administrators, and Aboriginal peoples.
