Experts from the #African continent and its global #diasporas called on #European governments to address their #colonial past and ongoing impacts at the #Dekoloniale #Berlin #Africa Conference, a #decolonial counter-version of the 1884/5 Berlin Africa Conference 140 years ago.
Representatives from Africa and people of African descent came together at the conference on November 15, 2024, to reflect on the history and lasting impacts 140 years after the opening of the 1884/5 Berlin Africa Conference, where European powers expanded their colonial reach across the African continent. Civil society organizations working on the legacies of #colonialism in the world, including its ongoing impact on #HumanRights, also joined the November 15 conference.

(But there is a major upside. Because #diasporas live and operate in two worlds and are #CulturallyVersed, they can provide the #EssentialKnowledge & #intelligence that can be used to #ServeAndProtect #Canada & its interests. #Diaspora #communities are the ace in Canada’s card deck. Their #WealthOfKnowledge is an #underutilized #resource that Canada can tap into, if only we would listen.)
It's a rather akward feeling to realize that here today, on my modest German doorstep, several #diasporas with the same ennemy who are fighting for the same cause - open, pluralistic, liberal #democracy, rule of law - yet have various degrees of difficulty connecting and working with each other.
To wit, younger #Russians fleeing from #Putin shunned and viewed with suspicion, disdain or outright hostility for being Russian ; 1/3
#Introduction Hello everyone, #NewHere. I am a social scientist working as Professor in #Human_Rights and #Multiculturalism at the University of South-Eastern Norway since 2022. Before that I was Senior Lecturer in #Sociology at the University of Helsinki, Finland. My research interests include #migration, #refugees, #asylumpolicy, #immigration, #ethnicrelations, #transnationalism, #diasporas, #minorityrights
#Introduction I am a senior research fellow at the Tampere Peace Research Institute in Finland. My research interests include: #feminist #peace research, #gender, #sexualviolence during conflicts, #diasporas and conflicts, #bodies in #war and peace…
I have collected data on these issues in the Great Lakes Region of Africa, Northern Ireland, the South Caucasus, among other places.
Looking forward to meeting people here, to discover and to learn!
