In this episode, Ugandan filmmaker and theatremaker Patience Nitumwesiga reflects on Paulo Freire’s and Augusto Boal’s ideas, exploring how art, story, and imagination can awaken critical consciousness and challenge imposed notions of progress. Key Ideas Unlearning the “banking model” — Knowledge already lives within communities; true learning begins through shared reflection. The burden and gift of awareness — Once awakened, we cannot return to ignorance; awareness demands creative resistance. Decolonising “development” — African ways of life are not backward but expressions of freedom and identity.
