So looking forward to the AISA Conference in October with incredible leaders, Elizabeth & Estelle Hughes as Keynote; and a dedicated and well designed DEIJ Symposium.
"We're the leaders, we are here. We need to take ownership of our leadership and come together. The world has always been changed by a handful of motivated people and that is who we are today."- Estelle Hughes
"I hope that children today are going to learn more about who we were before. We need to identify our own indigenous wealth as something that can teach us and inspire us for the future. This needs to start within us. It starts with a shift of mentality" Estelle Hughes
"Integrating nature into the curriculum is considered today an innovation - when we have been doing that for centuries in Africa." Estelle Hughes
"It is about our children, the deficit narratives, and the curriculum violence they have been exposed to - it is time we free them from this" Estelle Hughes
"We need to decolonize our minds. We need human-centralized leadership where all leaders sit down with local communities to understand and shift challenges together. This is a battle fought by the mind, not the weapons" Obore Charles
