TRANSFORMING EDUCATION: INTERNATIONALIZATION WITH INCLUSION OF TRIBAL PERSPECTIVES

Education systems are changing quickly in the linked world of today as a result of internationalization and globalization. Increased student mobility, worldwide research projects, cross-border academic partnerships, and the implementation of internationally recognized curricula are characteristics of this shift. These advancements must put inclusivity first, particularly for indigenous communities, who have historically been left out of the mainstream of educational advancement, even as they want to improve educational levels and competitiveness.

Indigenous groups varied sociocultural and linguistic realities are often overlooked when the internationalization of education is linked to metropolitan, elite institutions. Context-specific educational changes are necessary in nations like India, where Scheduled Tribes (STs) make up a sizable section of the population. Ignoring tribal viewpoints in international education plans runs the risk of exacerbating already-existing disparities and further marginalizing indigenous students.
