The Social Ideas Podcast: Necessary discomfort of postcolonial narratives (Part 2)
Show Notes

This is the second episode of The Social Ideas Podcast that focuses on social innovation in education. 

After teaching Social Studies in Calgary for four years, Lisa Mallory wished to better understand the attitudes of Canadian teenagers towards Indigenous narratives. She knew they cared, but the existing curriculum was often met with disinterest, resistance and even anger. She used her dissertation research to better understand non-Indigenous Canadian students’ classroom experiences of learning about Indigenous perspectives. 

The discussion is led by Dr Michelle Fava, the Head of Knowledge Transfer for the Cambridge Centre for Social Innovation, and Mark Andrews who is the Digital Learning Programme Manager at the Cambridge Judge Business School. They are joined by Lisa Mallory, a recent graduate from the MSt in Social Innovation (Cambridge Centre for Social Innovation).
