Join us for the latest eLearning Africa Podcast – In Conversation with Professor Sozinho Francisco Matsinhe. Chatting with Rob Vember, Sozinho argues the challenge now that Africa has been liberated is to free the minds of its people, arguing we should see languages as an asset, not as a liability of any kind. He calls for linguistic equity and talks about his efforts towards achieving that goal by making "the if possible", possible, during his tenure as Executive Secretary of the African Academy of Languages (ACALAN), the official language agency of the African Union. In the conversation he discusses misinformation and disinformation around Covid-19. While communication is part of the problem Sozinho says it takes us to a much broader issue of the interplay between language and development, his main focal area. Find out why "You can't kill hunger with foods cooked in borrowed pots" or why "You can't lick an empty hand". In addition to the many metaphors he employs, he shares why Mother tongue based education or bilingual education, shouldn't be seen as a way to solve pedagogical problems.

Join us for the latest eLearning Africa Podcast – In Conversation with Barbara Moser-Mercer, professor emerita and founder of InZone, a programme of the University of Geneva, which pioneers innovative approaches to higher education in communities affected by conflict and humanitarian crisis. Moser-Mercer is visiting professor at the University of Nairobi, engaged in strengthening African solutions that advance higher education in emergencies (HEiE) and currently coordinating the launch phase of the African Higher Education in Emergencies Network (AHEEN). Chatting with Rob Vember, the former Fulbright scholar spoke passionately of the importance of a human centred approach to technological advancements, and warned of the risk in pushing for more technology. She explains why she believes the digital divide is so serious, and shares about her work in Africa, specifically talking about higher education in forced displacement contexts, explaining why it requires a utilitarian approach to education, a stance she would not ordinarily take.
