TOK EXHIBITION Object 2: A Map of Indigenous Territorial Boundaries

  • Theme: Knowledge and Indigenous Societies
  • Rationale: This map, representing indigenous perspectives on land and territorial rights, challenges students to consider the forms of evidence recognized in different cultural and knowledge systems. It prompts a discussion on how oral histories, cultural practices, and traditional ecological knowledge can serve as valid forms of evidence within indigenous societies, questioning the criteria used to evaluate evidence across diverse epistemological frameworks.

Objects in the TOK exhibition serve as tangible manifestations of complex TOK concepts, allowing students to explore and demonstrate their understanding of knowledge in a concrete and relatable context. They act as catalysts for deep reflection, discussion, and analysis, bridging abstract theory with real-world examples and personal experiences.
