Closing other gaps: Yolngu perspectives on and proposals for two-ways learning to improve intercultural communication and policy

土著事务目前为“缩小差距”所作的努力并未成功地可持续地改善文化间交流或社会和环境成果，特别是在偏远地区。土著知识当局已经对这些问题进行了长期而认真的思考。在与Yol？U知识权威机构的长期合作中，该项目将开发一种可复制的双向学习交流方法，为跨文化合作提供信息，开发Yol？U数学框架，提高游客对人与环境关系的理解。这项研究将考察游客和Yol？u的体验，并考虑一个框架的政策含义，该框架反对人与地的本体论分离。

Current efforts in Indigenous affairs to ‘close the gap’ have not succeeded in sustainably improving intercultural communications or social and environmental outcomes, particularly in remote locations. Indigenous knowledge authorities have thought long and hard about these issues. In a longstanding collaboration with Yol?u knowledge authorities, this project will develop a replicable two-ways learning approach to communications to inform cross-cultural collaborations, developing a Yol?u mathematics framework that improves tourists’ understanding of human-environment relationships. The research will examine tourist and Yol?u experience and consider policy implications of a framework that counters ontological separation of people from place.
