Decolonial perspective
TRAINING
The topic of decolonization is becoming increasingly important in the German culture of remembrance. This is happening in a context of constant growth in Berlin's population, with a significant proportion of migrants and also a growing proportion of African migrants and families. This welcome development in dealing with the colonial past Germany and its consequences can be explained by the fact that our present is still shaped by colonial structures. Thus, the effects of postcolonial continuity are given special attention within the framework of this project.
This will be done by gradually supporting the conception of seminars and workshops as well as other measures related to the topic of postcolonial continuity. The effects of colonial ideas on our present as well as on everyday life should be addressed. In addition, the connection between colonial continuity and anti-Black racism will be particularly enlightened and the mechanisms that make the participation of people read as Black/Africans more difficult on the structural levels will be worked out, and appropriate solutions will be developed with regard to the needs and expectations of the Target groups and actors who will contribute to the implementation of the respective measures are developed.
