A Canadian Association for the Study of Adult Education (CASAE) West Coast Regional Conference
Hosted by the Faculty of Education, University of Victoria and in partnership with the Social Environmental Alliace.
The ART OF RESISTANCE AND LIBERATION will spark critical dialogue through art, performance, music, theatre, and social action that challenges dominant norms, inequities and conceptions of knowledge in western society and provokes action for systemic change and a more egalitarian world.
The conference draws on UNESCO’s four pillars of adult education:
Learning to be
Learning to do
Learning to know
Learning to live together
The ART OR RESISTANCE AND LIBERATION recognizes that critical adult education embodies multiple forms and is interdisciplinary by nature. It seeks to unite academia, activists and practitioners from diverse backgrounds and fields who engage, empower and transform with the ultimate goal of creating a better world. The conference recognizes that central to this is confronting colonization, embracing resurgence, and settler peoples learning to deal with their past, become allies and live in solidarity.
