Seeding Success in Indigenous Australian Higher Education (Hardcover, New)


More Indigenous Australians are realizing their potential but many remain significantly disadvantaged compared to other Australians on all socio-economic indicators and one of the most disadvantaged peoples in the world. Increasing successful outcomes in Indigenous Higher Education is recognized as vital in addressing this disadvantage and closing the gap by creating a new generation of Indigenous Australians armed with a tertiary education. Whilst there is widespread agreement that disadvantage needs to be addressed and success achieved for Indigenous Australians, effective solutions remain elusive. This volume offers diverse analyses and research-derived new solutions for seeding success. The volume presents informed opinion underpinned by demonstrated theory, research, and practice and is written in an engaging and accessible style that will advance understandings of contemporary issues and point the way forward to seeding success. Encompassing a collation of chapters from leading researchers and thinkers, this book illuminates the complexity of Indigenous Higher Education issues and serves to identify successful solutions that have important international implications.
