Indigenous self-determination in research and education: perspectives from Indigenous postsecondary institutions
Abstract:
Indigenous postsecondary institutions have advanced Indigenous self-determination across the globe, compelling a profound interrogation of mainstream education, research, and science policies and their role in colonial nation-building and the homogenization of knowledge systems. This session will convene leaders from these institutions to discuss the modes of learning, inquiry and pedagogy that are fostered there, their partnerships with other Indigenous postsecondary institutions worldwide, and how they have engaged with the bureaucratic structures in which education, research and science – and policymaking in these areas – are embedded. The panel aims to strengthen networks between Indigenous postsecondary institutions, while also facilitating broad cross-sectoral engagement.
