The goal of ISWG is to establish an ongoing campus space where Indigenous scholars – and those who focus on Indigenous issues – can share ideas in an environment that truly recognizes Indigenous knowledge and its importance. ISWG is a non-competitive and dialogical space where Indigenous knowledge serves to decolonize the academy. This open-form discussion will address such topics as how, why, when, and where to include indigenous knowledges, models, methods, and content In our teaching practices. MSU faculty, staff, students, and alum, and community members, are all welcome.
