Schools are key sites to counter marginalisation and enable belonging. This study will investigate how Black African diaspora youth experience belonging in Australian schools and ways that schools can change practices to enhance belonging. The project will generate new knowledge of belonging and its importance for schooling using innovatory Participatory Action Research with African youth and teachers. Expected outcomes are directions for education policy and practices, development of professional resources for working with diasporic students and capacitating young African people as researchers. Anticipated benefits are improved school engagement, retention and outcomes for African diaspora youth and insights for other marginalised youth.

学校是反对边缘化和建立归属感的关键场所。这项研究将调查非洲黑人散居青年在澳大利亚学校的归属感，以及学校如何改变做法以增强归属感。该项目将通过与非洲青年和教师进行创新的启发性行动研究，产生关于归属感及其对学校教育重要性的新知识。预期成果是为教育政策和做法提供指导，开发与散居国外的学生合作的专业资源，并使非洲青年人有能力成为研究人员。预期的好处是改善非洲散居青年的学校参与度，保留率和成果，以及其他边缘化青年的见解。
