Land-Based Learning
From an Indigenous perspective, land-based learning goes beyond moving the indoor classroom lesson outside, or simply adding Indigenous content to an existing outdoor education program. True Indigenous land-based learning is rooted in the traditional knowledge of Indigenous Peoples acquired over a centuries-long relationship with the land.
