Introduction: Developing participatory strategies as an ethical principle can contribute to culturally appropriate research based on horizontal practices. Objective: To describe participation strategies as an ethical aspect in research experiences for care with indigenous peoples. Methodology: Narrative review. SCIELO, PUBMED, Web of Science, CINAHL, and SCOPUS databases were used. The search strategies used were indigenous peoples (OR) Native Peoples (AND) Ethic research (AND) Community (OR) communities. We screened by title and abstracts according to established inclusion criteria. Principles of content analysis were used for evidence synthesis. Results: 17 manuscripts were obtained, where 100% corresponded to qualitative articles. Three main categories are described: Structures for participation, methods for participation, and trust relationships for participation. Conclusion: The establishment of a trust for participation means a profound change in the relationship between researchers and native peoples, which requires research practices oriented towards meaningful community participation, framed in ethical guidelines that outline the governance of research, with emphasis on transparency, agreements, and reciprocity mechanisms.
