Session overview

Decolonisation is rightfully becoming a central priority across the global health and development field. Join us for an active conversation about operationalising this transition across disciplines and sectors, where we'll be discussing questions such as:

• How are different disciplines addressing inequities and decolonising research and training?
• What are the lessons learnt to date?
• What does progress look like? And how can it be accelerated and tracked?

Please come with your own questions and ready to engage!
