Despite its global relevance, indigeneity is an often-overlooked phenomenon in discourses within education research. Indigenous methodologies and frameworks are used to re/claim truth from colonial histories, by engaging in ‘knowledge production’ for and by the indigenous. This Vice-Presidential symposium brings together Indigenous scholars whose research centers indigenous knowledges, education and justice in P-20 contexts. Panelists will participate in a facilitated discussion with the audience around the key considerations for indigenizing educational research.
