Minter Dialogue with Dr Emmanuel Nuesiri
Dr. Emmanuel Nuesiri is the Program Leader for the Social Sciences at the African Leadership College (ALC) Mauritius, where he teaches courses in Feminist Economics, Environmental Politics, and Research Methods. He holds a PhD from St. Antony’s College at the University of Oxford, UK. He has teaching and research experience from Africa, Europe, and the United States. In this conversation, we discuss his teaching philosophy and how he actively fosters debate and meaningful conversation in the classroom. We look at how he establishes a co-learning, co-sharing and knowledge co-creation space between himself and his students.
