Abstract This article is an exploration of the museum practices of the Indigenous communities of Meghalaya, in north-east India. It uses Bryony Onciul's concept of museums as ‘Engagement Zones’, highlighted in the book Museums, Heritage and Indigenous Voice: Decolonizing Engagement as a conceptual basis for analyses and critique. Presenting a perspective from the Global South, the study aims to locate the limits to self-representation and community engagement in the museums of Indigenous communities. In doing so, the article aims to make a case for the need for community narratives in museum-making, particularly for Indigenous communities, in the effort towards decolonised museum practice. © 2022 The Author(s).
