WoMin African Alliance (WoMin) has hosted six Feminist Schools since 2016 in which a Pan-African ecofeminist popular education approach has evolved. The participants are women in communities of resistance against extractive projects in West, East, and Southern Africa. Given the limited research on ecofeminist popular education in Africa, an exploratory case study method is used to examine the praxis of the emergent curriculum. Most participants have limited levels of formal schooling; therefore, we probe how we build an understanding of complex theoretical ideas while simultaneously honouring the centrality of women’s embodied knowledge. We describe various participatory, inventive pedagogical practices which place women’s experiences at the centre while elucidating abstract concepts. The facilitator’s ability to weave theory from the stories while ‘on her feet’ is crucial. The case deepens the argument that experience is a source of knowledge and provides rich evidence to support it.
