Global Indigenous Education - INED804

While exploring education from the perspectives of Indigenous people in Australia and in other parts of the world you will gain a better understanding how education has been used as a tool for the colonial project. This unit focuses on education and Indigenous people from Australia, Aotearoa (NZ), Canada and the United States. These particular countries cover hundreds of distinctive Indigenous communities who exist across contemporary national boundaries and geo-political divisions. Although these communities are linguistically and culturally diverse, they nevertheless share common colonial histories of dispossession and ongoing political, economic and social marginalisation and subjugation.
