Abstract

There is increasing interest in codesign for engaging Indigenous peoples and communities. However, codesign in Indigenous contexts is often poorly defined and has little evidence to draw from on how to do codesign in a way that will result in improved outcomes. The chapter presents key findings from a study on codesigning Indigenous education in Queensland. The research reveals data informed by Indigenous people, inherently incorporating strengths-based philosophies. The chapter provides an evidence-based framework providing practical guidance for both practice and research.
