WEBINAR: Valuing Our World Views: Indigenous Community at the Centre

This webinar has ended. You can watch the replay here.

Join Community Research’s free webinar to hear how indigenous community designers, Rebecca Kiddle and Danièle Hromek, are pushing the boundaries of the academy, community development and design practice and principles by ensuring that indigenous design, knowledge and practice and the voices of community are front and centre in their work. Hear about some of their highlights and ongoing challenges with their work and the difference it is making for those who collaborate with them.

A recent publication of their work (in which Rebecca is an editor) is in an international publication: Our Voices: Indigeneity and Architecture (2018).  Danièle challenged traditional academic referencing in her recently submitted PhD, eschewing non-indigenous theorists and creating a referencing system that privileges and validates indigenous knowledge in its various forms. Volume II of Our Voices is due to be published soon.

We recommend this webinar to anyone who is interested in Māori research, design of communities and community spaces, place-based learning and indigenous design.
