🌿📚 Our book club's latest journey through "Unsettling Settler-Colonial Education: The Transformational Indigenous Praxis Model," especially Chapter 1 by Geneva Becenti (Diné), proved to be an enlightening exploration of resilience, language, and cultural preservation. 📖✨ Geneva Becenti, with roots deep in Diné bizaad, shares a powerful narrative against the backdrop of colonial attempts to assimilate Indigenous languages and cultures. This chapter takes us from the oppressive Civilization Fund Act of 1819 to the empowering Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act of 1975 and the NMIEA of 2003, showcasing a historic fight for the revitalization of Indigenous education and autonomy. 🌱 Through the lens of the Transformational Indigenous Praxis Model (TIPM), this chapter illuminates a path forward for decolonizing education, fostering critical thinking, and promoting culturally relevant learning environments. It's a testament to the strength of Indigenous communities in reclaiming their languages and educational systems. 💪 This chapter challenges us, as educators and students, to deeply integrate Indigenous knowledge and languages into our curricula, creating learning spaces that are not only inclusive but are also respectful and empowering for Indigenous students. It's a call to action for all of us to contribute to the healing and rebuilding of Indigenous education. 🌺 Let's continue this conversation and explore how we can implement these insights in our educational practices. How can we support the revitalization of Indigenous languages and cultures on our campuses? Share your ideas and let's make change together! 🤝 #IndigenousEducation #DecolonizeEducation #CulturalRelevance #TransformationalPraxis #EducationalEquity #LanguageRevitalization #BookClubInsights #ChangeMakers #EmpowermentThroughEducation

In a country as linguistically diverse as India, multilingual education is a powerful tool for fostering unity, mutual respect and broader perspectives. By embracing education in multiple languages, we not only preserve cultural heritage but also empower individuals with the ability to connect across communities. This fosters a literacy environment of understanding, inclusivity, and, ultimately, peace. Let’s commit to ensuring that literacy becomes a gateway for mutual understanding, where every language is a bridge to a more harmonious world. #InternationalLiteracyDay #LiteracyDay #Literacy #literacyforall

International Day of Education! Taking a moment to recognise UNESCO’s dedication of this day to the crucial role educational settings and teachers play in countering hate speech, a phenomenon which has snowballed in recent years with the use of social media, damaging the fabric of our societies. As educators, we bear the responsibility of not only imparting knowledge but also instilling values that promote inclusivity, empathy, and respect for diversity. By fostering a culture of open-mindedness and understanding, we can contribute to building societies founded on tolerance and unity. A quote from UNESCO: ‘Learning for peace must be transformative, and help empower learners with the necessary knowledge, values, attitudes and skills and behaviours to become agents of peace in their communities’.

🌍 Its #Literacyday. 📚Imagine not being able to read important and life-saving information, that is the sad reality of many people around the World. Today, over 754 million adults around the world still lack basic literacy skills, with women making up two-thirds of this population. On this World Literacy Day, we recognize the power of literacy in transforming peace. This year's theme, "Promoting multilingual education: Literacy for mutual understanding and peace," highlights the need to embrace multilingualism in education to promote respect across diverse cultures. Today, we celebrate the progress made by amazing individuals, governments and UNESCO that has increased Literacy rates to 87% in 2023 and also look for solutions to address the challenges that remain. Together, we can create a world where literacy is a reality for all. Photo Credit: UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning #WorldLiteracyDay #MultilingualEducation #PeaceThroughLiteracy
