Indigenous peoples’ experiences of cyberbullying: An assemblage approach

拟议的项目旨在探索土著人民遭受网络欺凌的经历。关于土著人民如何理解、体验和应对网络欺凌，人们知之甚少。这个项目希望产生关于被描述为“国家危机”的新知识，并记录与自我伤害和自杀的相关性。该项目的预期成果包括编制详细的基于现场的民族志，重点是土著学生、父母、长老和LGBTQI社区成员。这应该会带来显著的好处，包括促进学术研究和公众对网络欺凌的理解，为政策和项目发展提供信息，并产生土著特有的教育资源。

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.
