Résumé

Nous présentons les contributions importantes des programmes offerts par les établissements d’enseignement postsecondaire autochtones à la revitalisation culturelle autochtone, en nous appuyant sur une discussion de groupe entre quatre éducateurs de la petite enfance (ÉPE) autochtones du programme menant à un diplôme en ÉPE d’un établissement postsecondaire autochtone située dans le nord de l’Ontario. En tant que co-auteurs, nous sommes l’aîné autochtone, deux instructeurs, l’administrateur principal du programme ainsi que le professeur d’université non autochtone. Nous préconisons les programmes d’études générés par la communauté autochtone qui incarnent les connaissances, les valeurs et les pratiques culturelles autochtones locales, tout en s’appuyant sur les thèmes découlant de l’analyse des données des groupes de discussion.
