Dear SAERA Members,
We are inviting short contributions to explore ways to report on how Mandela’s legacy is engaged with today. We aim to open up our digital space as a national platform to share these reflections collectively with your name and bio.
- What of Nelson Mandela, in his speeches, writings and actions, might have inspired your view of education.
- What about Mandela’s memory is educational as opposed to just inspirational?
We will select some reflections to publish as academic blog posts for the purposes of promoting deeper critical thinking on and about education in South Africa
Full call for contributions in the link below:
