Book excerpt: "One of the most unprecedented developments in the history of the scientific study of psychology in postcolonial Africa is the recent welcome inclusion of the study of African psychology within the psychology degree curriculum of some foreword-thinking African universities. In each of those universities (such as the University of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa, and Kenyatta University in Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa), there now exists a gradual entrenchment of the African-derived psychology in the curricular provisions of their psychology degree programmes. With particular reference to the University of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa, for instance, a number of African psychology-based modules have recently been developed, approved and incorporated into the list of modules for psychology degree students at the undergraduate, Honours, and the Master's degree levels (see University of KwaZulu-Natal, College of Humanities' Handbook, 2018)"--
