The contributing chapters showcase innovative autobiographical methodologies and research designs grounded in culturally sustaining pedagogies. The contributorsexperienced educators and scholars with rich linguistic and cultural backgroundsoffer insights of particular relevance to teacher education programs across varied educational contexts.
