The Concept of Ecodomy as Teaching Instrument in Intercultural Pedagogy

Abstract: This article is an attempt to see how the concept of ecodomy can be used in intercultural education to demonstrate how the idea of ecodomy can be applied to various domains of interest to tertiary education, especially to public universities from the perspective of two intercultural contexts, such as Western settings and their African counterparts. Particularly, the concept of ecodomy will be treated as a pedagogical instrument in both these contexts since it is related to the activity of teaching theology and religion as humanistic sciences, although I argue that the concept itself, as well as its content, should not be restricted to humanistic sciences alone. The purpose of using the concept of ecodomy as a pedagogical instrument in intercultural education is to see if it can fit within the field of intercultural education, and specifically in intercultural pedagogy.
