Inclusivity and Indigeneity in Education for Sustainable Development
Journal · pp. 1-297
Abstract

A major issue globally revolves around the urgent need to reshape our education system, aligning it with the ambitious Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set to transform the world by 2030. These goals, comprising 17 distinct objectives and 169 targets, form an ambitious agenda that seeks to recalibrate the global landscape across social, economic, and environmental dimensions. Inclusivity and Indigeneity in Education for Sustainable Development stands as a catalyst for fostering dialogue on the interconnected realms of education, indigeneity, and sustainable development. It explores the relationships between these pillars and offers a comprehensive understanding of their transformative potential. The book emphasizes the essence of inclusivity, echoing the 'No one left behind' SDG agenda, which goes beyond mere academic discourse to foster fairness and justice. Additionally, it delves into the invaluable resource of indigenous knowledge, transmitted orally across generations, and its profound connection to sustainable development. By advocating for a shift in education, the book calls for an approach that ensures no one is left behind in the teaching and learning process. This paradigm shift is envisioned as a broad civilizational project, connecting with marginalized communities and tapping into their distinct cultural resources for crafting resilient and sustainable strategies. Inclusivity and Indigeneity in Education for Sustainable Development is a scholarly exploration that dissects the need for reshaping the education system. Tailored for researchers, policymakers, institutional leaders, and general readers, the book covers diverse topics such as inclusive education, indigenous knowledge, sustainable development, and climate action. Its aim is to foster a global dialogue, sparking discussions that contribute to reshaping education for a more equitable and sustainable future. © 2024 by IGI Global. All rights reserved.
