Abstract
[This chapter attempts to explore Africa’s indigenous knowledge across fields and sectors. Where applicable, curriculum of study is also brought into focus within a particular field, in order to determine the extent to which indigenous knowledge is recognized in teaching and learning. Fields examined include Agriculture, Environmental studies, Economics, Politics, Law and Justice, and Medicine. A case is made for the mainstreaming of indigenous knowledge in the fields of study.]
