Professor Catherine Odora Hoppers, Incumbent: DST/NRF South African Research Chair in Development Education, Unisa, and PASCAL Board member gave a public lecture on 27 May at the University of Malta.
Professor Hoppers spoke about emancipation in a bid to wipe out oppression, both in people’s everyday lives and also connected to global systems. “My vision centres around the democratisation of democracy through cognitive justice, a new theory of non-violence which goes beyond statist dreams,” says Prof Catherine Odora Hoppers.
