Engaging the Interfaces Between
Indigenous Educators,
Non-Indigenous Educators and
Indigenous Communities
Gold Coast Mariott Hotel - Surfers Paradise - Queensland Australia
28, 29 & 30 June 2006
WELCOME
The QUT Oodgeroo Unit would like to welcome educators, researchers and community practitioners from around Australia and the world to the 2006 (Re)Contesting Indigenous Knowledge and Indigenous Studies Conference. Indigenous and non-Indigenous people are engaged in the recontestation of Indigenous knowledges and knowledge systems within and across many cultural interfaces. Cultural interfaces include those spaces where Indigenous peoples and non-Indigenous peoples create and act upon meaning (or misunderstanding) and can be considered as a series of ongoing, cultural dialogues (Nakata, 2002).
Among many Indigenous Australian and international educators from various education and community sectors, Keynote presenters include:
