Collective Foundations

Decolonial Knowledge Production and Antiracist Pedagogy Education Incubator Project Launch

About this Event

This event is the first co-hosted by Exeter Decolonising Network and the Education Incubator Fellows. We will explore questions such as: What does decolonising and antiracism mean in your organisation, discipline, community, or place of work? How do you navigate the intersectionality of colonial legacies, decolonisation, teaching and/or research? Collective groups and scholar-activists who will be sharing  tentative answers in relation to their own praxis and space include: The Black South West Network // The Creative Switch // Black Lives Matter Day of Action // Caitlin Kight // North Devon Sunrise.
