Decolonial Chats

Towards Unlearning Colonialism in Development
Research & Practice

The Centre for International Development at Northumbria University, UK, with the key support of the UK Development Studies Association (DSA), has hosted in June 2021 a series of online workshops aimed at students, early-career researchers and development practitioners, interrogating how coloniality is embedded within development research and practice and how global development can be a driver of contemporary global, racialised inequalities.

See below the details and watch the recordings of an exciting range of speakers who have presented on topics including knowledge creation from a decolonial feminist perspective, research partnerships, south-south solidarity and the interfaces between ethnography and social activism, including two bilingual events (in Portuguese and Spanish).
