Course description
This course provides students with contemporary understandings of Indigenous Australian experiences and systems of family and kinship. Students will learn about the wide variety of kinship systems which were/are used in Indigenous communities prior to and after colonisation. They will gain a practical understanding of how to map and construct genealogies, and a firm grounding in the ways that family and kin relationships link people to each other, their country and to the Dreaming.
