This paper advances a theoretical analysis of the similarities and differences between critical theories of education and Indigenous theories of education along three main themes: epistemological and ontological groundings, the means of education, and political projects.

Its fragility is due to the 2021 coup with its consequent civil disobedience movement, continued conflict between the military and people's defence force, the junta's spurious delivery of a post-COVID and post-coup education system, and the junta's…

However, studies investigating UAE…
