ABOUT
This curated list, from Linda Tuhiwai Smith’s book: Decolonizing Methodologies, gathers twenty-five grassroots Indigenous projects, each showcasing different ways that land-based, communal, and epistemologically diverse approaches are shaping sustainability, governance, education, and healing.
The document serves as an informal archive and learning tool, spotlighting practical and often overlooked interventions in climate justice, language revival, food sovereignty, and Indigenous governance. It stands as a testament to the breadth and vitality of Indigenous knowledge systems in the present, not just the past.
ABOUT
This reference was recommended by the Bartlett Pan-African Indigenist Collective.
The Collective is a space for critical dialogue, activism, and scholarship that foregrounds Pan-African Indigenist ways of knowing, being, and creating. Formed by members of the Bartlett community dedicated to uplifting the voices, knowledge, and cultural legacies of people of African heritage and their respective Indigenous communities and lands, it aims to challenge colonial legacies and inspire transformation within institutional structures, research and curricula. By integrating creative and scholarly practices, the Collective works to restore narratives that have been silenced or misrepresented. Their work advances decolonial efforts in higher education by creating inclusive spaces and centring diverse African knowledge systems. Bartlett Alternative recognises the Collective’s vital contribution to broadening intellectual and cultural horizons through radical inclusivity and exclusivity, and thanks them for sharing resources that foreground lived experience, land-based knowledge systems, and epistemic justice.
