Abstract
We examine colonialism through pedagogy, method, curriculum and knowledge and conclude by identifying potential for developing and developed countries to collaborate in knowledge creation. As a case study, we draw on the Commonwealth Youth Programme’s Diploma in Youth in Development. Does it deliver liberatory education or intellectual colonialism?
