In this episode of the podcast Claire is joined by Jade Kennedy (Academic Director and Senior Lecturer in Indigenous Knowledges at the University of Wollongong) to discuss Jindaola.

Jindaola is about successfully embedding Aboriginal perspectives and knowledge into the university's curriculum and teaching practices. As Jade makes clear it's a team approach where the knowledge of community elders is being embraced by the university and where all students and staff are the beneficiaries.
