Beschreibung
This book responds to the question "Is it time to reimagine design education in Africa and decolonise our creative future?" The proposed volume is designed to provide a source of inspiration to readers in imagining their own futures within fields of Creative industries such as performative art, architecture design, industrial design, media production, drawing and illustration, filmmaking, design, documentary, virtual reality, and others.

With a focus on decolonising design education in Africa, this book will challenge the dominant capitalist narrative and centre on the needs of African communities. It will provide insights into the challenges and opportunities of decolonising design education and propose alternative models for design education that promote social and environmental sustainability, cultural preservation, and community empowerment.

Collectively, the proposed book's accounts bring to life the career possibilities within a rapidly expanding global sector of creativity and innovation with immense cultural, social, political, and economic impact. By exploring new models of creative practice and education that centre on social impact, cultural relevance, and community empowerment, this book will inspire readers to think critically about their own futures in the Creative Industries in Africa.
