Afrocentricity, Afrocentric education, and Afrocentric pedagogy are foundational concepts that enrich our understanding of the Afrocentric curriculum.
At its core, Afrocentricity provides an empowering framework that encourages Africans to reclaim their agency and claim a central role in their historical narratives (Asante, 2007). This approach seeks to integrate African cultural values, attitudes, knowledge, and skills into education and fosters practices that consistently nurture these elements. We can encourage deeper and more meaningful engagement with knowledge by emphasizing pedagogical methods rooted in Afrocentric perspectives.
At BOHG Academy, our commitment is to actively implement Afrocentric pedagogical theories and practices grounded in the Yoruba culture of Omoluabi. The principles of Omoluabi offer a transformative framework for cultivating respectful, responsible, and resilient scholars.
