Back to the Village: Indigenous Education in Indonesia

Indigenous educators from across Indonesia and the Philippines share their thoughts on the problems and solutions in education for indigenous youth. “The existing education system teaches ‘ilmu pergi’ - the science of leaving.” (Sarno Maulana, Pasawahan school, West Java). "It is important for us to start our own education - our indigenous education. So we are the ones who determine its methods, we are the ones who determine its contents, and all of this within our territory.” (Jhontoni Tarihoran, BPAN) (LifeMosaic)
