Michael Fahy partners with faculty from across the university to engage SOE students in the Nubia Odyssey project
Fahy’s fall 2022 class is one component of the Narrating Nubia project, which is supported by the Humanities Collaboratory.

The summer issue of LSA Magazine features an article about the Narrating Nubia project, which uses artifacts, memories, and animations to tell the stories of Nubia, the Nile region that is home to one of the world’s most ancient cultures whose residents now thrive all over the world. In collaboration with faculty from the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the Departments of Afroamerican and African Studies, Anthropology, and Women’s and Gender Studies, Michael Fahy, a lecturer in Educational Studies, is working to educate the world about Africa's historic Nubian culture.
This fall, Fahy will lead the final portion of the Narrating Nubia project by engaging SOE students in a web-based initiative called Nubia Odyssey. SOE students who take Education 261 in the fall 2022 semester will have the opportunity to participate as mentors in the semester-long online project that teaches middle and high school students worldwide about the richness and complexity of Nubian culture and life both in the region and the Nubian diaspora.
