Finally, we dedicate this Handbook to ourearly research leaders who have broken through numerous barriers to clear the way for the work that is presented here. Preface Indigenous communities across the world traditionally had very sophisticated sys- tems of education that were never static but developed as a result of reflection, collective deliberation, and experimentation. These education systems had no end- ing: each generation expanded the community’s knowledge base. Traditionally, learningoccurredasoneparticipated inactivitiesofeverydaylivingandjoiningin life’s ceremonies. While this form of education continues in current times, it is in additiontomorestructuredandformalsettings. The academic field of Indigenous education is a continuation of this journey. Indigenousscholarshavebeenworkingharddevelopingspaceintheacademiesand writingtextswithanaimtoexpandIndigenousknowledgebasesthroughresearch. The text draws attention to the fact that every chapter has been led, and largely entirely produced, by Indigenous academics – a feat that would not have been possibleevenadecadeago. Over the last four or more decades, the education of Indigenous peoples has become an increasingly central preoccupation in many colonized countries across the globe and for international associations. With Indigenous education systems disrupted and often destroyed by colonial invasion and exploitation, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) has brought totheworld’sattentionourrighttoteachourhistories,languages,philosophies,and literature, to establish and control our own education systems and institutions, to teach in a manner appropriate to cultural methods of teaching and learning, to provide education in our own languages, and for all Indigenous children to have access to an education in their own culture and language. This book addresses all theseissuesforIndigenouspeoplesacrosstheglobeandindifferentcontexts. Indigenous education today is a complex, interdisciplinary field of research requiring its Indigenous researchers to straddle disciplines of the academy – a super subject – incorporating subjects such as linguistics, psychology, history, mathematics, astronomy, law, and philosophy, to name but a few, and subjects in the future we have yet tohear about. The Handbook brings together diverse views and strategies from across the world to provide a comprehensive overview of the complexitiesandnuancesofIndigenouspeoples’experiences.Indigenouspeoples’ positioningoneducationislargelydrivenbytheircolonialhistories. vii viii Preface The purpose of the Handbook of Indigenous Education is to provide a state-of- the-art reference and a comprehensive map of the field to date. It is divided into six major sections based ondebatesand topics of interest toIndigenous communi- ties,andeachsectionhas10–12chapters.Eachofthesixsectionsisintroducedby twosectioneditorswhoareinternationallyrecognizedinthefield.Allchaptersare either led or entirely written by Indigenous academics. We attempted to recruit a widespreadofpeoplefromdifferentcountriesandcontinentsacrosstheglobeand achieved this to a large extent; however, we are cognizant there are “gaps.” These gapspresentachallengetoallofusaswemoveforward. The Handbook is available as a print edition and as a fully searchable online version.

Some people approached were not available to write or did not respond to invita- tions.Thisistobeexpected–Indigenousacademicsareoftenovercommitted,trying to satisfy both institutional demands and community obligations. However, books arealways the result of acomplexweb ofrelationships. This bookrepresents, first and foremost, networks within networks of Indigenous scholars and, secondly, another network of allies who have supported the work of Indigenous scholars in theacademy.
