Decolonial Toolbox – Level 2

The reality of Indigenous Peoples is shaped by settlement colonialism, which refers to the invasion of a territory by settlers.

In this form of colonialism, settlers establish themselves permanently and impose their sovereignty. This process is continuous and characterized by sustained occupation of a territory. Therefore, the second level of the Decolonial Toolbox – Educational Pathway, will present concrete examples of colonial strategies used to eliminate, assimilate and displace Indigenous Peoples.

You can deepen your knowledge of the subject by listening, watching and reading the suggested resources, and then begin your own process of reflection.
