Fostering Global Citizenship

African Perspectives on Interculturalism and Inclusive Education

Drawing from African epistemologies and the unique socio-political landscape of South Africa, this study provides a compelling argument for treating inclusive education as an investment in social cohesion and global citizenship rather than a mere policy obligation.

Across South Africa and the broader Sub-Saharan region, issues of cultural intolerance, diversity, and inclusive education are more urgent than ever. As societies and economies evolve, disparities in access to quality education, social justice, and equity remain stark, particularly for marginalized groups. While legislative efforts and policies have been introduced to foster inclusivity, persistent issues involving intercultural and inclusive education continues to hinder the realization of a truly unified and equitable society.

In Fostering Global Citizenship: African Perspectives on Interculturalism and Inclusive Education, Mbulaheni Obert Maguvhe presents a critical study that explores how issues surrounding intercultural and inclusive education can be addressed. Through an in-depth examination of strategies, policies, and educational frameworks, Maguvhe highlights the importance of fostering mutual respect, social justice, equity, and inclusivity. Drawing from African epistemologies and the unique socio-political landscape of South Africa, this study provides a compelling argument for treating inclusive education as an investment in social cohesion and global citizenship rather than a mere policy obligation. Various chapters offer practical insights into promoting diversity in education, ensuring disability access, integrating indigenous knowledge systems, and creating environments that embrace all learners.

Bringing together educators, policymakers, researchers, and advocates, this study is key for anyone committed to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in education. Within this work, readers gain valuable perspectives on fostering global citizenship through an African lens, ensuring that no learner is left behind.
