Cultural Justice

Cultural Justice draws from a multi-disciplinary knowledge base that includes history, politics and sociology of education, and builds on theoretical traditions including critical, decolonial, poststructuralist, and post-humanist orientations to research. Our core projects currently incorporate a focus on Aboriginal Education, Culturally Responsive and Nourishing Schooling, and Gender Justice.
