Postcolonialism in education

Postcolonialism in education examines how the legacy of colonization influences teaching, learning, and knowledge production. It highlights how colonial histories shaped curricula, perspectives, and power dynamics, often marginalizing indigenous and local voices. The aim is to critically analyze these impacts and promote inclusive, diverse, and decolonized approaches to education that recognize and value different histories, cultures, and knowledge systems beyond colonial narratives. This perspective encourages educators and students to question dominant histories and work toward more equitable and representative educational practices.
