Demands to decolonize relationships, practices and knowledge have increased in the last years. These demands have been raised due to persisting prejudice, repression and inequalities rooted in colonial legacy, and they touch all spheres of society, including science. The aim of the conference on May 5 2023 is to bring together all actors interested in the debate on decolonizing Swiss research collaborations. A diverse and interactive programme has been prepared in order to provide different perspectives on decolonizing research collaborations, present different practical approaches and stimulate discussions among participants. Registration deadline for the conference is 28 April 2023.

In addition to the conference, a series of interactive and inspiring online workshops will take place in the period of April 19 - May 31 2023. The aim of these workshops is to bring together professionals involved in Swiss North-South research collaborations, to promote exchange on the topic of decolonization and discuss ideas or promising practices to tackle this demanding challenge. All workshops will take place online. Registration deadline for the workshops is 5 days before the workshop you want to visit.
