Improving how we teach about Australia's history

Imagine if every primary school had a local First Nations teacher to talk about the history and cultural practices of the area. What would our future look like if children were given this kind of insight into the richness of Indigenous culture? Dr Scott Winch is the Senior Policy Advisor, First Nations at World Vision Australia and the co-chair of Know Your Country- an organisation that advocates for local First Nations teachers in every school. Scott talks about why local knowledge is so important and the difference it can make to children across Australia.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
