Abstract
- This paper provides a way to theorize and practice Decoloniality in teaching and learning within higher education. Two social work academics develop a framework for teaching about decoloniality which they hope is useful for other academics from different "helping" professions who also work with First Nations peoples. Rather than a fixed and firm framework it is intended to be used to inform practice and assist students in developing their own framework for practice. The article begins by offering how the authors define decoloniality, then presents a theory for practice/practice to theory framework and explanation of how we use this framework for teaching/learning and practice. Highlights: Decolonial practices in teaching and learning in higher education.Embedding indigneous ways of doing, being, and knowing in Social Work Curriculum.Decolonial theory in practice.
