Description

This groundbreaking text rethinks the concepts of citizenship and community in relation to young children, exploring how indigenous understandings and practices applied in early childhood settings encourage care and concern for others.

Through close observation and examination of early years settings in Australia and New Zealand, the book demonstrates how practices guided by Aboriginal and Māori values support and nurture children's personal and social development as individuals and citizens in a wider community.

Providing insight into effective pedagogical approaches that have been long excluded from mainstream dialogues, this book offers a powerful account of what citizenship can be for young children and how Indigenous cultural values shape ways of knowing, being, doing and relating.
