Decolonise The Internet

During its inception, the internet was seen as a vital instrument for democracy and equality. In 2020, amidst a global pandemic and racial inequalities that are very much still alive, it is time to ask: Whose stories are told and who is telling these stories on the internet? And how do Artificial Intelligence, Algorithms and Bots shape our view of the world and perpetuate racisms? This is where the new Goethe-Institut project "Decolonise The Internet" sees its core.

Heritage in Perspective

This 3-day workshop, the first in an intended workshop series in 2020/21, aims at creating a mutual forum for key practitioners in the field of cultural heritage in Ghana and bringing them together to jointly “map” important heritage collections in the country.
