Cultural learnings: strengthening Aboriginal children's wellbeing

该项目旨在加强对城市土著儿童种族认同的了解和自尊。该项目将开发、实施和评估一项名为文化学习的干预措施。该项目期望通过从土著长老和照顾者向学校环境中的儿童传授创新的、但在文化上有保障的知识来产生新的知识。预期成果包括提高照顾者在教育儿童了解身份和文化方面的效力，改善学校文化安全，以及改进儿童应对种族主义的一系列战略。预计这些结果将对儿童的出勤率、行为、态度、努力和成就等学校结果产生积极的影响。

This project aims to strengthen the knowledge and self-esteem of urban Aboriginal children’s racial identity. The project will develop, implement and evaluate an intervention called Cultural Learnings. The project expects to generate new knowledge using an innovative, yet culturally secure transfer of knowledge from Aboriginal Elders and carers to children within a school environment. Expected outcomes include improved carers' efficacy in teaching children about identity and culture, improved school cultural security and improved range of strategies used by children in response to racism. These outcomes are expected to provide a positive shift in children's school outcomes such as attendance, behaviour, attitudes, effort and achievement.
