Indigenous Innovations in Higher Education: Local Knowledge and Critical Research.

Elizabeth Sumida Huaman; Bryan McKinley Jones Brayboy

Huaman, E. S., et Brayboy, B. M. (2017). Indigenous innovations in higher education: Local knowledge and critical research. Springer.

This edited volume is the result of a collaborative project of Indigenous graduate education training and higher education-tribal institution partnerships in the southwestern United States. We feature the work of interdisciplinary scholars writing about local peoples, issues, and knowledges that demonstrate rich linkages between universities and Indigenous communities. Collectively, as Indigenous peoples writing, this work takes the opportunity to explore why and how Indigenous peoples are working to reframe dominant limits of our power and to shift educational efforts from the colonial back to an Indigenous center. These efforts reflect a conscientious practice to maintain Indigenous worldviews through diverse yet unified approaches aimed at serving Indigenous peoples and places.
