I urge parents, teachers, and religious leaders to read about the country’s history and teach their children. - Akosua Adomako Ampofo

Step to the side or to the back. Allow the people for whom this is life and death to take the lead. We all live on this planet, need each other’s support.

I urge the Ministry of Education to make history a compulsory subject in schools. That would enable young people to know their true identity as Ghanaians and Africans, and empower them to become responsible citizens.

All of us have capacity that can be built. We teach because we are building capacity we’re not the 'super knowers' but we do have certain experience, e.g how to do a survey or write a paper for publication and present it within 15 minutes. But the way in which capacity building is seen is very technocratic and Eurocentric in the sense that people all over the world have some of these 'hard skills', but they do them differently we may write differently, for example, but the standard for a journal article, supposedly international, is really Eurocentric.
