This book explores the experiences of Indigenous children and young
adults around the world as they navigate the formal education
system and wider society. Profiling a range of different
communities and sociolinguistic contexts, this book examines the
language ecologies of their local communities, schools and wider
society and the approaches taken by these communities to maintain
children's home languages. The authors examine such complex themes
as curriculum, translanguaging, contact languages and language use
as cultural practice. In doing so, this edited collection acts as a
first step towards developing solutions which address the
complexity of the issues facing these children and young people. It
will appeal to students and scholars of sociolinguistics, applied
linguistics and community development, as well as language
professionals including teachers, curriculum developers, language
planners and educators.
