Abstract
Recreation scholars and practitioners are among the professionals learning to navigate through a multicultural, diverse, and paradoxical world. We wish to suggest that it is necessary for recreation professionals to attend to cultural contexts (a) for the benefits of recreation to be realized across cultural boundaries, and (b) to assist in sorting through the need, often expressed by various cultural groups, to maintain or promote cultural heritage, traditions, and history, while continuing to develop, change, and advance. Adapting Brookfield's (1995) critical self-reflective model, we critique our participation in a cross-cultural research project involving Aboriginal and First Nations peoples. The ideas presented point to the need for all recreation professionals to engage in both private and public self-reflective and critical practices.
