Indigenising Curriculum resources
The University of Queensland acknowledges the Traditional Owners and their custodianship of the lands on which UQ operates. We pay our respects to their Ancestors and their descendants, who continue cultural and spiritual connections to Country. We recognise their valuable contributions to Australian and global society.
The University is committed to Indigenising Curriculum, embedding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander curriculum and inclusive teaching practices in programs. Use this page to find a rich and curated collection of library resources and innovative approaches for incorporating them.

Need help evaluating a resource?
The Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS) Guide to evaluating and selecting education resources is designed to support teachers with selecting quality and culturally appropriate curriculum resources. The guide features the AIATSIS Resource Evaluation Framework that teachers can use as a critical reflection tool to consider:
- whether Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples participated in the development of the content
- how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are positioned in the content
- best practice for producing your own resources.
