Details

This workshop is part of an undergraduate teaching-focused project at Monash University, which aims to develop an interdisciplinary and student-centred approach to the decolonization and Indigenization of Monash’s Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy, and Economics (PPE). At this workshop, experts on curriculum decolonization and Indigenization within and across each of the three disciplines will share their experiences of, and strategies for, addressing western biases in PPE knowledge, epistemology, and pedagogy within an undergraduate teaching setting. The workshop is targeted at tertiary educators within and across the PPE disciplines. The workshop is funded by the Faculty of Arts at Monash University.
