About the Journal

The Canadian Journal of Native Education was first published in 1980 with the goal of compiling and sharing the works of Indigenous Scholars in the field of education. From its inception the journal was published twice yearly: In spring/summer a theme issue was compiled by the Faculty of Education's Indigenous Education Institute of Canada (later moved to the Office of Indigenous Education, in the Faculty of Education) at the University of British Columbia. In fall/winter a general edition was compiled by the Department of Educational Policy Studies at the University of Alberta. Occasional supplements were also published.

Since 2020 the journal has been on hiatus while preparing for a relaunch as an online open access publication. We are excited to announce that we have re-established our publishing committee at the University of British Columbia and look forward to call for submissions in Fall 2023.
