In this episode, we shine a spotlight on an upcoming event transforming how African educators connect, collaborate, and champion education rooted in African realities- The AfricanISE Virtual Conference. Created to fill the gap for a dedicated space centering African voices and issues in education, this gathering aims to inspire a renewed sense of urgency and purpose among educators across the continent.

Senyo speaks with Kwame Sarfo-Mensah, founder of Identity Talk Consulting, whose work rests on three pillars: culturally responsive teaching, identity-affirming education, and anti-bias, anti-racist practices to develop K-12 teachers into identity-affirming educators. Kwame shares his journey from classroom teacher to global consultant, and the ideas behind his newest book, Learn to Relearn: Supporting Identity in Culturally Affirming Classroom", which challenges educators to dismantle systemic biases and embrace inclusive, decolonized teaching practices. He also offers insights into the five strands shaping the conference’s agenda, promising conversations that will equip educators to reimagine learning for African contexts.
