A culturally safe education engagement model for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men in prison

Aboriginal and Islander Health Worker Journal
Volume 40 (Jan/Dec 2016)

Abstract: Learning through storytelling, intergenerational interactions and respectful passing on of knowledge have been integral parts of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures for thousands of years. Although the process of colonisation has severely disrupted many of the cultural rights and activities practiced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander nations across Australia, it has not eradicated them, and we continue to adapt and change as we have done for thousands of years.
