Land as relation : teaching and learning through place, people, and practices

Kress, Margaret, (editor.). Horn-Miller, Kahente, 1972- (editor.).

Summary: "This collection takes an intersectional approach to Indigenous land-based or place-based education with the aim of helping learners explore traditional ecological philosophies, knowledges, and practices in Canada and around the globe. Based on Indigenous conceptions of place, territory and home, the chapters include contributions by noted and upcoming Indigenous and ally-partnered scholars who have access to elders and deep cultural and linguistic knowledges of Indigenous nations. This text generates a global intersection of Indigenous pedagogy associated with the traditional ecological knowledges of Indigenous peoples centered in Indigenous languages, sciences, mathematics, arts, health and governance, and land relations." --
