Master"s of Indigenous Studies Thesis Title:

When KNOWLEDGE is not POWER. The integration of Traditional midwifery into the Health system: The case study of a Traditional Midwife among the Toka of Zambia

Motivations for applying to the MIS program:
I work for the National Museums of Zambia were I got exposed to indigenous issues especially in the area of knowledge production. I did a number of researches in this area when I realized I needed to know more about Indigenous issues if I were to contribute positively not only to my work but also to Indigenous people. This led me to apply for this Course.
