Conference paperAbstract
Architectural education is empowered with agency and a capacity to critique socially inequitable issues. It offers unique opportunities to make an impact with communities beset with challenges of infrastructural inequality. One such challenge is the right to adequate house, a basic human right stipulated by the United Nations. Indigenous Australian community ways of being, knowing and doing are predicated through traditional, historical and contemporary narratives that coexist within a settler colonising framework.Architectural education is empowered with agency and a capacity to critique socially inequitable issues.
