Abstract

The African continent is multilingual and multicultural in nature. Foreign languages and cultures have come to be accepted and integrated in daily life. The existence of African languages and cultures is still very vital for the continent. This paper examines the colonial influences and a way forward in Education and literacy. My personal experience as an African and researcher are at the bases of the analysis on the context, identity, education, policies, implementation and development.
