This chapter places emphasis on community-driven human security interventions in Africa, using Northern Ghana as a case study. However, the chapter argues that external interventions by the international development and humanitarian industry are not neutral practices. Rather, they are imbued with perpetuation of coloniality, which is undergirded by the civilizing mission orthodoxy organized through a trusteeship system. This chapter adopts Mignolo framing of coloniality as “the privilege of possessing dominant categories of thought from which and where the rest of the world can be described, understood, and improved”. |
