“…Nine out of the 24 publications discussed frameworks, models, services, interventions and/or programmes that were located in Australia (Blacklock et al, 2018; Grace et al, 2018; Lawton et al, 2020; Moss & Lee, 2019; O'Donnell et al, 2020; Onnis et al, 2020; Radke & Douglas, 2020; Robinson et al, 2017; Satour & Goldingay, 2021), seven were located in the USA (US) (Bussey & Lucero, 2013; Johnson et al, 2015; Lucero & Leake, 2016; Mindell et al, 2003; Napoli & Gonzalez‐Santin, 2001; Ullrich, 2020; van Schilfgaarde & Shelton, 2021), five in Canada (Cameron, 2010; Gerlach & Gignac, 2019; Hansen et al, 2012; Makokis et al, 2020; Zinga, 2012) and three in New Zealand (Hamley et al, 2023; King et al, 2018; Makoare et al, 2021).

“…Relationality and relational practices emerged as a key dimension in a majority of the publications. Eighteen of the 24 publications highlighted the importance of honouring Indigenous worldviews and holistic understandings of the relationships and relational processes within and between families, communities, ancestors and the natural environment (Cameron, 2010;Gerlach & Gignac, 2019;Grace et al, 2018;Hamley et al, 2023;Hansen, 2012;Johnson et al, 2015;King et al, 2018;Lawton et al, 2020;Lucero & Leake, 2016;Makokis et al, 2020;Moss & Lee, 2019;Napoli & Gonzalez-Santin, 2001;Onnis et al, 2020;Robinson et al, 2017;Satour & Goldingay, 2021;Ullrich, 2020;van Schilfgaarde & Shelton, 2021;Zinga, 2012). This strong emphasis on relationality spanned geographic locations.…”

“…Eleven of the 24 publications accentuated the importance of maintaining family/kinship/wh anau connectivity for Indigenous children and young people (Bussey & Lucero, 2013;Cameron, 2010;King et al, 2018;Lucero & Leake, 2016;Makoare et al, 2021;Makokis et al, 2020;Radke & Douglas, 2020;Robinson et al, 2017;Ullrich, 2020;van Schilfgaarde & Shelton, 2021;Zinga, 2012). In Indigenous child welfare programs and services, this emphasis on family connections honours not only the centrality of connectedness with family and kin to the wellbeing of Indigenous children and young people (Ullrich, 2020) but also the vital roles that Indigenous children and young people play in relation to the collective health and wellbeing of Indigenous communities (Makokis et al, 2020).…”

“…and/or programmes to be grounded within Indigenous knowledge systems(Gerlach & Gignac, 2019;Hamley et al, 2023;Hansen, 2012;Johnson et al, 2015;King et al, 2018;Lawton et al, 2020;Lucero & Leake, 2016;Makoare et al, 2021;Makokis et al, 2020;Moss & Lee, 2019;Napoli & Gonzalez- Santin, 2001;Ullrich, 2020;van Schilfgaarde & Shelton, 2021). For instance,Makokis et al (2020) stressed the importance of critiquing and disrupting colonial concepts and definitions of children and childhood with 'nêhiyaw [Cree] ways of knowing, being and doing in relation to children and their families' journey in this world' (p.45).Similarly, van Schilfgaarde and Shelton (2021) emphasized that indigenizing child welfare systems requires attentiveness to Indigenous lifeways and worldviews.3.6.4 | Cultural connectivityTwelve of the 24 publications emphasized the centrality of cultural connectivity for Indigenous children and families and/or wh anau.Learning about and participating in their own culture was highlighted as contributing to a sense of belonging, development of identity, and holistic wellbeing for Indigenous children and families/wh anau, in addition to contributing to the collective preservation of Indigenous culture(Blacklock et al, 2018;Bussey & Lucero, 2013;Cameron, 2010;Gerlach & Gignac, 2019;King et al, 2018;Lucero & Leake, 2016;Makoare et al, 2021;Makokis et al, 2020;O'Donnell et al, 2020;Satour & Goldingay, 2021;Ullrich, 2020;Zinga, 2012).Aboriginal mothers in the Cradle to Kinder (AC2K) home visiting programme in Australia identified opportunities to connect with their culture, and by extension their community, as a key strength of the programme(O'Donnell et al, 2020). Likewise, in New Zealand, the He kaiawhakatere hau ahau practice model(Makoare et al, 2021) identified connections with cultural heritage and practices-'knowledge of how to be M aori and the skills...…”

National and state governments in settler colonial countries are increasingly committing to policies and practices aimed at strengthening Indigenous frameworks, programmes and leadership in child protection services. However, research‐based information on Indigenous child welfare services and programmes is sparse. This qualitative literature review explores and documents key features of Indigenous child welfare and protection models and/or frameworks in an international context, with a specific focus on Indigenous children, young people, families, and communities. Twenty‐four publications meeting the inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. Published frameworks, models, services, interventions and/or programmes within the broader area of child welfare and children protection that are Indigenous‐designed and/or led or developed in partnership or collaboration with Indigenous peoples were identified. The review highlights 11 key dimensions that underpin the frameworks, models, services, interventions and/or programmes. Findings of the review also reveal commonalities across Indigenous cultures and contexts that from an Indigenous perspective are considered fundamental to supporting Indigenous children, young people and families involved with child protective services. Additionally, the findings point to the critical need for ongoing advocacy for Indigenous‐designed and led services and programmes, including support for Indigenous research, evaluation and intellectual leadership.
