  • Summary

  • Often education is seen as a means towards employment. But for philosophers like bell hooks and Paolo Freire, education is more than that, it is a means through which we can expand our humanity. Their theories around the meaning of education are grounded in love which is a vital component for liberation. Article 26 of the UDHR provides that everyone has the right to education. How can we deepen this right to meet the unique challenges of the 21st century whilst also addressing the traumas of the past? More and more we are seeing calls for an education system designed to equip us with living in a poly crisis world. What would a right to education responsive to these crisis and traumas experienced in the global south experience look like? How can we create an education system that produces leaders of the future who do not act from fear or trauma but from love and wholeness? We will explore these questions and more with educator, Hatim Eltayeb and coach and therapist, Savanthika Pillay.
