Abolition of the Slave Trade and Religious Transformation – Course Description:
This topic examines the decline and abolition of the transatlantic slave trade and its effects on West African societies, particularly in reshaping religious dynamics. It explores how the end of the slave trade created conditions for the spread and consolidation of Islam and Christianity through missionary activities, education, and new economic systems. Course Objective: The objective is to help learners understand the link between the abolition of the slave trade and religious transformation in West Africa, and to assess its impact on social, cultural, and spiritual changes in the region.
