摘要：
After more than 40 years of education for Apartheid, the development of empowering adult education with the formerly disadvantageed population groups is one of the major challenges for the democratically elected governments in South Africa and Namibia. One of the strongest forces that sustained Apartheid in Namibia until 1990, and in South Africa until 1994, was an education system with different schools and resources for the different population groups. Despite the strict implementation of the Bantu Education System by the white government, some groups of people could still organise alternative education projects aiming at participants' gaining more control over their own lifes. Groups of women in the Western Cape initiated autonomous pre-school projects and took part in in-service training for pre-school teachers in the 1980s. These women realised that contrary to the expectations of the society they were living in, they were able to think and act independently. A similar process took place with adult literacy learners in the National Literacy Programme in Namibia.
