Panel

This panel explores the dynamic landscape of governance within Indigenous education, highlighting how Indigenous philosophies, values, and knowledge systems inform a unique approach that contrasts sharply with Western models. Central to this discussion is the principle of self-determination, which empowers Indigenous communities to assert control over their educational institutions. Yet, the lingering influence of Western governance frameworks poses challenges to this autonomy, often complicating the pursuit of authentic Indigenous educational practices.

Join us as we delve into the tensions and opportunities that arise at this intersection, illuminating pathways toward a more equitable and culturally relevant educational governance.
