Chapter 6 in Research Handbook on Student Engagement in Higher Education, 2024, pp 72-86 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter explores engaging Indigenous university students and draws lessons for other under-served student groups. It begins with an overview of historical policies that have hindered Indigenous inclusion in higher education. We discuss the concept of Indigenous relationality, highlighting its significance for Indigenous student engagement. Case studies illustrate how universities incorporate Indigenous relationality practices. Additionally, the chapter explores how a relational approach benefits other equity groups, such as international and mature-aged students. Finally, it discusses recommendations for applying Indigenous relationality practices across university operations.
