Abstract

The notion of Academic Freedom snarled the endorsement of the Institute of Koorie Education Research Plan at the Academic Board of Deakin University requiring discussion, written arguments and a presentation with the full authoritative direction of Elders and Respected Persons/Knowledgeable Others. This resulted in elevation of arguments on the primacy of Indigenous Knowledge Systems and the ruling on the Research Plan several months later. This paper progress a previous article through outlining achievements and discussion of one aspect of this necessary work within and external to the University.
