Decolonising Education for Peace in Africa (DEPA) Network

Description

Decolonising Education for Peace in Africa (DEPA) is addressing the question: What are the different knowledges and values underpinning peace and how can these practices be connected and compared across countries to create curriculum content and mode of delivery in informal and formal settings, Secondary and Higher Education (HE), in order to decolonise peace education?

Operating across 5 countries for the first phase – Nigeria, South Africa, Uganda, Zimbabwe and the UK - the network is, for the first time, providing new data based on Arts and Humanities methodologies on how peace is understood within displaced and marginalised communities. Researchers, community workers and communities that have experienced conflict are connecting to produce state of the art knowledge.
