Rethinking the Potential of Formal Education in Buttressing the Peace–Economic Development Nexus among Karamojong Pastoralists in Moroto District, Uganda.
REFNo: SS4615ES
The study aims to critically examine the interconnections between formal education, peacebuilding, and economic development among the Karamojong pastoralist communities in Moroto District, Northeastern Uganda. Specifically, it seeks to understand how formal education can be strategically leveraged to promote social cohesion, gender equity, and sustainable livelihoods, while interrogating the socio-cultural, political, and economic dynamics that influence its implementation and outcomes.
Anchored in Pierre Bourdieu’s Theory of Practice, the study explores how education operates as both a field of social reproduction and a potential catalyst for transformation within a historically marginalised pastoralist society.
Research Objectives:
To realise the overarching aims of the study, the following research objectives have been framed:
1. To explore how Karamojong pastoralists experience and perceive access to formal education across different levels (primary, secondary, tertiary, and vocational), focusing on the social, cultural, economic, and geographical factors that shape participation and exclusion.
2. To examine the extent to which formal education, in its current form and cultural relevance, contributes to conflict mitigation, peacebuilding, social cohesion, and economic resilience among Karamojong pastoralists.
3. To analyse how the socio-cultural, political, and economic characteristics of the Karamojong people influence the formulation and implementation of educational policies and strategies within their region.
4. To investigate how formal education shapes gender relations, power dynamics, and opportunities for both women and men in the Karamojong community, particularly in relation to peacebuilding and economic development.
5. To co-develop culturally relevant educational strategies and curriculum innovations that integrate indigenous knowledge and support peacebuilding, gender equity, and sustainable development in pastoralist contexts.
6. To formulate evidence-based policy recommendations that align educational policies and practices with the socio-cultural realities, aspirations, and economic needs of the Karamojong pastoralist communities.
