Målgruppe

Open for both CISU members and their partners-organisations.

Læringsmål

Participants will get an overview on attempts to update the language used in international development, and get an opportunity to discuss way forward.

Indhold

"Have colonial attitudes been sustained in the language we use in development"?

"Does our use of knowledge and experts replicate colonial mindsets"?

"Are funding mechanisms still shaped along colonial lines"?


These are some of the questions that we will address in this dialogue event.


This online dialogue will be split up in two parts:

a. PANEL:

Presentation from Alexander Medik, PARTOS (to be confirmed) on "actionable pathways towards a decolonised development sector". This presentation will be followed by a westafrican perspective this issue by Jimm Fomunjong from WACSI (West African Civil Society Institute).

b. DIALOGUE:

We will make breeak-rooms (10-15 minutes) to reflect on the panel presentations - and prepare questions or statements for debate.

A plenary session will follow the break-out rooms.
