Transforming the University: Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Studies in the 21st Century
The Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Studies Conference journal publication, entitled Transforming the University: Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Studies in the 21st Century, is now available at the UAA Bookstore. It was published in 2014 by the University of Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Anchorage.
On April 5-6, 2013, The Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ hosted the first-ever Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Studies Conference, titled "Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Studies in the 21st Century: Transforming the University." With a focus on Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Peoples and their culture, the conference strove to highligh history, art, language and other related topics.
The conference drew more than 300 people and featured myriad speakers presenting a wide array of Indigenous-focused information and research. The second Conference was hosted by University of Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Southeast (UAS) in Juneau on March 14-16, 2014.
This publication serves as a valuable tool both for individuals interested in Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native research, education, and Indigenous paradigms. This is the inaugural Âé¶¹ÎÞÂë°æ Native Studies Journal and contains articles from the initial gathering, as well as the pre-conference symposium.
