Conference session

My presentation focuses on Indigenous research, which implies a multidisciplinary approach, making it challenging to understand in the circles of traditional Finno-Ugric studies. In Europe, Indigenous Written Culture History remains relatively unknown, while it is more accepted in North-America. Indeed, I currently use approaches developed by North-American’s scholars. It also is critical of Eurocentrism, a perspective accepted in Canada, although not widely adopted in Europe. It would be interesting to discuss similar Canadian’s approached pursued in Canada. Keywords: Indigenous research, endangered languages, decolonization, Saami history, Finland.
