Course description

In the 21st century, understanding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is crucial for developing globalised competence. This course will take you on a journey of understanding Indigenous knowledge and worldview, beginning with understanding culture, beliefs and identity of Indigenous peoples globally. Together we will explore and unpack Indigenous cultures around the globe, exploring histories and practices of Indigenous peoples. There will be a focus on the experiences of Indigenous Australians, discussing the importance of dialogue between Indigenous and non-Indigenous ways of knowing, pedagogical practices, voices and perspectives from valued Indigenous academics and elders. It explores the terrain of Indigenous Australian studies as well as broadening the context to include cross-cultural comparisons with other international Indigenous populations.
