The workshop-seminar at the Institute for Social and Cultural Anthropology at Freie University Berlin, called Decolonizing University is happy to announce their next meeting, on Tuesday, June 6 2023. 

We are an interdisciplinary group of people at different points in their studies. We came together with the common goal of networking and generating resources to achieve a broader understanding of racist and colonial structures in the institution university and to develop strategies to deconstruct and overcome them. 

The seminar takes place every two weeks during SoSe2023. You are very welcome to join us permanently, or just drop in for a meeting or two. The sessions will be a mix of discussions, readings, and lectures by scholars working on decolonial issues. The Decolonizing University workshop is an open space for anyone who wants to get involved. All are welcome to participate, discuss, and actively shape the seminar with their ideas. 

Our next presentation by doctoral student at FU Berlin will take place on July 04. We are excited to welcome Laibor Moko Kalanger from SFB 1171 Affective Societies on his collaborative provenance research in Tanzania.

If you would like to join us, get in touch at m.wirth@fu-berlin.de or s.sturm@fu-berlin.de or come to our meetings at 6:00 pm at the Institute for Social and Cultural Anthropology at Landoltweg 9-11, Seminarraum 014.
