Since the Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit (http://www.un.org/documents/ga/conf151/aconf15126-1annex1.htm) many and the international policy shift towards sustainability theory and practice, few programs have shifted from nor sought to engage in alternate educational paradigms that offer a non-Western perspective. This paper considers current research that is reviewing the state and agendas of Australian landscape architecture programs, the obligations of their host Australian universities to reconciliation and offering respect to Australia’s Indigenous communities, the role of the Australian Institute of Landscape Architects (AILA) (http://www.aila.org.au/) as an accreditation body but also an future education agenda-maker, and the initiatives several of these programs are making in addressing these challenges. In particular, the paper reviews the innovativeness of several programs in re-charting Australian student perspectives about non-Australian and non-Western environmental and cultural knowledge systems and paradigms, and where this may chart Australian landscape architectural education. Key Words: Indigenous knowledge systems, Australian landscape architecture education.
