, Question 1
How, according to Chilisa (2012), should we understand ‘postcolonial indigenous research
methodologies and philosophies’? What do you think is the value of such approaches to research
in education in an African context you are familiar with?
Postcolonial indigenous research techniques and philosophies, according to Chilisa (2012), are
modes of inquiry that are rooted in the cultural practices, values, and knowledge systems of
indigenous groups. Since research has historically been a weapon of colonialism and
imperialism, it is important to acknowledge this and work to empower indigenous people by giving
them the tools to produce knowledge that is representative of their lived experiences and way of
life.
Philosophies of education in Indigenous communities, in particular, demonstrate how education
is not simply a tool of oppression or the reproduction of dominant culture. Postcolonial Indigenous
education is, rather, a contested site in which traditional and modern ways of learning, teaching,
being, and doing are intertwined with efforts to preserve Indigenous culture, resist corporate and
neocolonial domination, and ensure that marginalized people are able to exercise their rights.
African researchers may recover their indigenous knowledge systems and produce information
that is representative of the lived realities of African populations by adopting postcolonial
indigenous research methodology and ideologies. That may assist create a more culturally
sensitive and pertinent educational system by bridging the gap between the educational system
and the realities of African communities. Additionally, it may aid in the empowerment of African
communities by enabling people to actively engage in the process of knowledge creation and to
make wise decisions based on their own belief systems and values.
In conclusion understanding the knowledge systems and cultural practices of African societies
requires a grasp of postcolonial indigenous research methodology and ideas. They make it
possible for African scholars to produce reflective knowledge empowering these communities by
allowing them to have an active part in the creation of knowledge, of the lived realities of African
communities.
