This document discusses indigenous knowledge systems and their relationship to education systems globally. It describes how indigenous communities have historically developed knowledge that is orally passed down between generations. However, many education systems have adopted a "global architecture" where Western epistemology dominates curricula and standard scripts are implemented regardless of local context. This validates Jones and Meyer's description that education in the global South has been influenced by external frameworks that do not consider indigenous knowledge or local circumstances. Examples discussed include the use of colonial languages as the medium of instruction rather than native tongues, and textbooks being produced abroad without local knowledge. The document argues for greater inclusion of indigenous epistemologies and local participation in education policy.

The International Year of Family Farming was launched on the 22nd November at UN Headquarters in New York.
What is Family Farming?
Family farming includes all family-based agricultural activities, and it is linked to several areas of the rural development. Family farming is a means of organizing agricultural, forestry, fisheries, pastoral and aquaculture production which is managed and operated by a family and predominantly reliant on family labour, including both women’s and men’s.
Objectives of the International Year include supporting the development of policies conducive to sustainable family farming and increasing knowledge, communication and public awareness.

Innovation Systems is a concept to help reveal and deal with the partnership and institutional issues that shape innovation processes and shape the contribution of research to that process. It recognises multiple knowledge bases, including research but also others. It is a capability to innovate, not just today but in ever-changing environments — i.e., it is a dynamic, adaptive capability. It is embedded in and defined by the institutional and policy contexts that shape the ways actors and organisations behave

This presentation gives an overview of the role of LIKSP in water resources management and how they can contribute to increasing climate resilience in the region, informed by a review of research carried out in 14 member SADC states. It reflects that local communities have been dealing with climate variability for generations and have learned to adapt their lives and livelihoods to the water cycle. Thus, new adaptation measures for the water sector must build on such knowledge.
The presentation highlights the link between the different local indigenous indicators with conventional forecasting systems still requires an in-depth exploration, and points to indications that the two knowledge systems complement each other, and their reconciliation may be invaluable to the development of preparedness to climate change impacts. The identification of relevant, reliable and more robust local indicators which could be useful in determining changes natural and water resources, and the environment, while contributing to food security issues among rural communities would be vital for this purpose. The nature, form and relevance of any indicator must be known by community members and useable if it is to be useful in policy formulation. Community engagement should be taken as the first step by researchers and policy makers, during the research and documentation processes, otherwise some of the information will remain locked within.

Indigenous Instructional Strategies and the Curriculum of Secondary General E...YogeshIJTSRD
This study examined the influence of indigenous instructional strategies and the secondary general education curriculum in Mezam Division, Bamenda, North West Region of Cameroon. A descriptive and a cross sectional survey research design with a mixed approach for data collection was used. The sample population was constituted of students and teachers of some selected secondary schools and parents within the Bamenda II, Bamenda III and Tubah sub divisions in Mezam with a sample size of 384 respondents. Data obtained was analysed descriptively and inferentially using cross tabulations, frequencies, percentages and charts. The Chi Square test was used to analyse the lone specific research hypothesis. The aim was to find out the level of significance of responses from the categorical variables in view of the impact of indigenous knowledge to the curriculum of secondary general education. Findings on showed that there is a significant impact of indigenous instructional strategies on the secondary general education curriculum in Cameroon. In conclusion, the introduction of livelihood skills that constitute educational elements of indigenous instructional strategies are worth integrating into the curriculum of secondary general education. Based on the finding, it was recommended that, there is need for the systematization of indigenous instructional strategies so as to ease its exploration and development for educational purposes. There is the need for the modification of the curriculum to suit the economic needs of learners and communities.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. Our assignment
What does Jones (2007) and Meyer
(1999) mean by ”global architecture” and
”standard scripts”, and to what extent do
you think that this is a valid description of
the situation in education systems in the
global South?
◦ Drawing from own experiences
3. Who is Indigenous?
“Indigenous communities, peoples and nations are those
which, having a historical continuity with pre-invasion and
pre-colonial societies that have developed on their
territories, consider themselves distinct from other sectors
of the societies now prevailing in those territories, or parts
of them. They form at present non-dominant sectors of
society and are determined to preserve, develop and
transmit to future generations their ancestral
territories, and their ethnic identity, as the basis of their
continued existence as peoples, in accordance with their
own continued existence as peoples, in accordance with
their own cultural patterns, social institutions and legal
systems” UN, 2004
4. Indigenous Knowledge
Produced in specific historical and cultural
contexts
Typically not “generated by a set of pre-
specified procedures or rules
Orally passed down from one generation
to the next
“As much skill as knowledge”
5. Jones (2007) & Meyer (1999)
”The global architecture of education”
◦ Common epistemological discourse which
dominates most educational systes in the
South and the North (Jones)
“The implementation of standard scripts
(also in education) occurs in countries of
all sorts, without regard to their
particular circumstances (and) produces
results that often seem quite bizarre”
(Meyer)
6. Extent of Influence
Francophone Africa and Regional
languages in Zambia
Language of instruction and Learning
Material
To what extent is this a valid description
of the situation in education systems in
the global South?
7. Language of instruction
In 1968 UNESCO claimed that it is:
“Through his(her) mother tongue that every
human being first learns to formulate and
express his(her) ideas about himself(herself) and
about the world in which he(she) lives”.
“(…) his(her) mother tongue is part of the
process by which a child absorbs the cultural
environment; it can, then, be said that this
language plays an important part in moulding
the child’s early concepts”.
8. Using a foreign tongue: result:
Bame Nsamenang & Tchombe (2011):
As national governments in Africa grapple with
slim budgets and low resource bases, their
education systems are churning out masses of
marginally literate school leavers and
graduates, increasing numbers barely able to
scratch a living …
Negative for sustainable development
Chile: textbooks for EIB in Spanish
and the medium of instruction is Spanish.
9. Learning material
The North distribute knowledge and
control the publishing houses in the South
Ex: South Africa:
8 mill Xhosa, 9 mill Zulus: no textbooks in
vernacular language
Need for national book publishing sector
10. The Maouri success story
A reaction: a counter-hegemonic teaching
◦ Built on their own epistemology
Maori way of learning and teaching:
◦ Learning-teaching relationships
◦ Learning is contextualized
15. Way Forward
Co-existence of western epistemology with
IKSs/ culture
The North need to be aware that the
education policies and practices they
promote are socially constructed and
therefore culture becomes critical in
interoperating them
Inclusion of receiving partners to donor aid
process
Need for independent education system
