Indigenous peoples’ experiences of cyberbullying: An assemblage approach

拟议的项目旨在探索土著人民对网络欺凌的经历。对于土著人民如何理解、经历和应对网络欺凌，人们知之甚少。这个项目希望对被称为“国家危机”的问题产生新的认识，并将其与自残和自杀联系起来。该项目的预期成果包括以土著学生、家长、长者和LGBTQI社区成员为重点，开发详细的基于现场的民族志。这将带来显著的好处，包括促进学术研究和公众对网络欺凌的理解，为政策和项目制定提供信息，并产生针对土著的教育资源。

The proposed project aims to explore Indigenous peoples’ experiences of cyberbullying. Little is known about how Indigenous people understand, experience and respond to cyberbullying. This project expects to generate new knowledge on what has been described as a ‘national crisis’, with documented correlation with self-harm and suicide. Expected outcomes of this project include the development of detailed site-based ethnographies focusing on Indigenous students, parents, Elders and LGBTQI community members. This should provide significant benefits, including advancing academic scholarship and public understanding of cyberbullying, informing policy and program development, and generating Indigenous-specific educational resources.
