Highly recommend this new @The_ACU podcast, @AdHabb and @JJ_Stellies provide clarity and a framework for the complex discussions around decolonisation. Challenging too... is displicine-based undergraduate study really the way forward?
The first episode of our new podcast is live! We start with a big question - does decolonising higher education matter? - with guests @AdHabb (@WitsUniversity @SOAS) and @JJ_Stellies (@StellenboschUni) Search for The Internationalist or listen online 👉 buff.ly/35C7nFK
