Even so, most indigenous/tribal, minority and marginalised children are not provided with appropriate mother-tongue-based multilingual education (MLE) that would enable them to succeed in school and society. In this book experts from around the world ask why this is, and show how it can be done. The book discusses general principles and challenges in depth and presents case studies from Canada and the USA, northern Europe, Peru, Africa, India, Nepal and elsewhere in Asia. Analysis by leading scholars in the field shows the importance of building on local experience. Sharing local solutions globally can lead to better theory, and to action for more social justice and equality through education.Linguistic Diversity and Language Rights, No. 7Education, BilingualMulticultural educationMinoritiesEducationLinguistic minoritiesEducationEducation, Bilingual.Multicultural education.MinoritiesEducation.Linguistic minoritiesEducation.370.117Skutnabb-Kangas Tove280100Phillipson Robert280098Mohanty Ajit K1609804MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815285303321Social justice through multilingual education3937225UNINA
