Résumé :

Incorporating living heritage in schools can help contextualize how and what students learn, create stronger connections between classrooms and learners’ everyday life and strengthen their sense of pride for their own cultures and respect for others. This project will contribute to building coordination mechanism between the Ministries of Education and Culture in Botswana, Malawi, Zambia to ensure that a robust methodology for heritage-based education is anchored in national policies and available to enrich teacher training courses and curriculum development for the future. The innovative and transformative methodology of learning with living heritage will be embedded in a whole-school community-based approach and will entail capacity building for teachers and all relevant stakeholders.
