EI 2024 Quadrennial Survey on Indigenous Peoples and the Right to Education

published 28 July 2024 updated 28 July 2024

Since EI’s first World Congress in 1995, the education trade union movement has recognised the importance of solidarity with, and advocating for, the rights of Indigenous Peoples. This means in and through educational systems, but also extends to the broader world of work, in the fight for climate justice, land rights, decolonisation, and more.

At EI’s 10th World Congress, the 2024 Quadrennial Survey on Indigenous Peoples and the Right to Education aims to collate the work completed by member organisations in promoting the rights of Indigenous Peoples within the realm of education and unions since our 8th World Congress in 2019. The survey explores union struggles and how together we can more meaningfully contribute to equity and the realisation of Indigenous rights in education.
