Should our universities prioritize local community knowledge over traditional academic research?
Context
Recent discourse suggests that co-creating knowledge with local communities can be more impactful than standard ivory-tower research. In Nigeria, we have deep traditional wisdom and community-led solutions to various socio-economic issues. Do you think our tertiary institutions should change their research approach to focus more on integrating these local insights, or would that compromise the standard of our academic output?
