Module 2 Post 2: Indigenization – is a checklist sufficient?

What does Indigenization mean? Is Indigenization simply a matter of following a checklist? What is the desired outcomes of Indigenizing a post-secondary curriculum/institution? I believe these are important questions to consider in order to participate authentically in the Indigenization process. Pidgeon’s (2015) article considers the role of Indigenization in higher education to help overcome current disparities in education and societies for Indigenous peoples.
