While #Halle is covered in snow, the #FID team is in #Cairo at #MELCom International with a presentation on ‘Open to Read, Closed to Publish: Is There an Open Access Dilemma for the Global South? #Decolonising Knowledge’.
📢 Last but not least, here is the final member of our Advisory Council!
🟣 @abebab founded and leads the AI Accountability Lab, while being an Assistant Professor of AI at the School of Computer Science and Statistics in Trinity College Dublin.
Her research focuses on #AI accountability. Her work in #decolonising computational sciences addressed the inherited oppressions in current systems especially towards women of color.
🌟 Excited to have her on board!
It’s a powerful testament to the DW-CONNECT framework: when we create a safe space, lead with compassion, respect a student’s unique way of thinking, and build on their incredible strengths, there are no limits.
Progress always trumps perfection.

New podcast episode is out! We spoke with Dr Leon Moosavi about the dangers of #decolonising the curriculum, #decoloniality, and international students at UK universities.
Sociology was my second favourite subject in school, well maybe third, and it is so cool now that I get to spend more time listening words like: epistemology, ethnocentrism, social construction, abolish patriarchy. They don't appear here, but you should still listen to it 
In this episode Catarina Carvalho and Sara de Sousa talk to Leon Moosavi about decoloniality, international students, and what he terms the ‘decolonial bandwagon’.

Nice to see that the organisation that I started my work life at, as a student intern in 2006, is today also active on the #Fediverse. Shout out to @EADI, the European Association of Development Research and Training Institutes 👋
*And* they run an interesting-looking project about #decolonising #knowledge in #development:
