Education shapes not just minds, but the way societies think about history, culture and power.

This session examines how colonial legacies continue to influence curricula, teaching methods and the very framework of knowledge. It invites participants to question dominant narratives, explore alternative perspectives, and consider ways to foster a more inclusive, critical and decolonized approach to learning. Join us to rethink what we teach, how we teach and whose knowledge we value.
