Climate colonialism as a new power structure

Wasteful use of the earth’s resources is a leading cause of environmental disasters, and the wealthy industrialized countries are benefiting from the exploitation of developing countries.

East Africa's most influential festival
Nyege Nyege 360

Over the past five years, the festival has grown from a small gathering of about 1, 000 people to a temporary city of about 11,000 people. It has grown from a little known musical experience to become a part of a global phenomenon.

The Goethe-Institut invites experts and creatives worldwide to exchange ideas on colonial power relations, their consequences and, above all, how to dismantle them: in discourses, interviews, opinion articles and art projects. For a decolonized and non-racial world.

Artistic encounters

The Artistic Encounters series brings together the work of two different artists in one space, at the same time. The artists who are part of the performance series bring their individual art to the stage while speaking to that of the artist they are working with to create new work.

Contact Zones Nairobi

Through the Contact Zone book series, the Goethe-Institut has published 27 books, documenting the art practice of various local artists, art collectives, socially relevant topics as well as those reflecting on the history of the country and growth of the Kenyan art scene.
