Funded Activity Summary

Transnational literacies - diaspora, schooling and identity. The need for transnational literacies - the capacity to function successfully within and between nations and cultures - is increasingly significant for multicultural Australia due to globalisation. The Greek-Australian community is used to explore schooling and its capacity to assist young Australians form productive cultural identities. This provides insights into a significant Australian community that will assist with the development of all ethnic communities. The project contributes to understandings of identity, learning and schooling. It reviews three decades of multicultural education and consolidates our national capacity to school for cultural difference and global citizenship.
