FPP is one of the co-founders and co-convenors of a Network on Indigenous-Led Education that was created in 2020. This is a growing, but loose and informal, network of northern-based and southern-based NGOs, networks and grassroots organisations working in environment, development and human rights sectors, and grant-making and donor organizations, who all wish to make indigenous communities, especially indigenous youth, more resilient for the future. Members of the network share the feeling that in our diverse strategies to address the many problems, risks and threats around human rights abuses, discrimination and marginalization, dispossession, loss and destruction of indigenous lands and territories, and eroding cultural diversity and vitality, it is important to also have a specific focus on the role of education – and how education can either undermine or empower resilience. The network aspires to create more traction and support for grassroots initiatives and programs that uphold, innovate, and pass on knowledge, language, customary practices, and connection to land and territory to new generations. Indigenous-led education (ILED) initiatives and programs, based on communities’ own priorities, ways of learning and empowering youth, are shown to be the most effective way to boost indigenous resilience and self-determination. Women especially play a crucial role as knowledge holders and teachers.
