Reviews
" Supporting Indigenous Children's Development describes a unique approach to curriculum ... that creates community-based, face-to-face learning to meet the needs and interests of the community while advancing post-secondary education credentials." - Judith L. Evans, UNICEF Consultant on Early Childhood Care and Development "The book's heart is the stories, told in multiple voices, of seven university-tribal partnerships. It illustrates a mutually respectful community development process drawing on the richness of cultural knowledge rather than simply imposing a university model. A timely contribution to strategies for action worldwide and to educational theory applicable in cross-cultural settings." - Elizabeth Jones, Faculty of Human Development, Pacific Oaks College, California "This book is important as all nations work towards the professionalization of early childhood education, and will be particularly relevant to peoples of the Pacific and Australasia." - Elizabeth Pakai, Head of School Social Science and Education Te Kura Matauranga Tu Tangata, Waiariki Institute of Technology, New Zealand

Synopsis
Supporting Indigenous Children's Development challenges and offers an alternative to the imposition of best practices on communities by outside specialists. It tells the story of an unexpected partnership initiated by an Aboriginal tribal council with the University of Victoria's School of Child and Youth Care. The partnership has produced a new approach to professional education, in which community leaders are co-constructors of the curriculum and implementation proceeded only if both parties are present and engaged. Word of this "generative curriculum" has spread to numerous Aboriginal communities and now over sixty communities have participated in the First Nations Partnerships Program. Jessica Ball and Alan Pence show how this innovative program has strengthened community capacity to design, deliver, and evaluate culturally appropriate programs to support young children's development., The authors show how an innovative program - an unexpected partnership between an Aboriginal tribal council and the University of Victoria's School of Child and Youth Care - has strengthened community capacity to design and deliver culturally appropriate programs to support young children's development., This book challenges and offers an alternative to the imposition of best practices on communities by outside specialists.

The partnership produced a new approach to professional education in which community leaders are co-constructors of the curriculum, and which is implemented only if both parties are present and engaged. Word of this "generative curriculum" spread to numerous Aboriginal communities and now over 60 communities have participated in the First Nations Partnership Program. Completion rates and community development indicators demonstrate the remarkable capacity built across diverse indigenous communities through the program. The program honors the knowledge residing within communities, and works with and upon diversity. It also engages communities in dialogue about research-based theories and models of early childhood from Euro-Western traditions. Evaluation research has shown how the program supports each community's unique characteristics while promoting their shared vision of promoting healthy children and healthy social structures. Supporting Indigenous Children's Development challenges and offers an alternative to promoting "best practices" devised and imposed on communities by outside specialists. The book will interest human service workers, professional educators, and community developers who know that communities' own concepts, capacities, and goals for children and families need to be the driving forces in professional education that respects and protects cultural diversity.
