SUMMARY:Decolonising Lancaster University Panel Discussion- Online
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an afternoon where we hear from student colleagues 
 examining themes ranging from migration and belonging to coloniality and 
 compassion in the context of decolonising knowledge\, theories and 
 practices.\n\nTuesday 11 March\, 1-2 pm\, ONLINE on Microsoft Teams\, LINK 
 HERE\n Free but requires registration! Please promote in your 
 networks.\n\n\n\n\n	Nafisa Baba- Ahmed:- Collaborating Over Power: My 
 Decolonising Journey in Writing and Research\n\n\nNafisa will be reflecting 
 on her journey toward becoming a more compassionate researcher through her 
 work on the Awarding Gap project\, and the process of completing her PhD. 
 Her approach to decolonising and development initiatives has shifted more 
 towards collaboration over power—recognising and valuing the work already 
 being done at the grassroots level rather than imposing external 
 frameworks. Her talk will explore how this shift in perspective has shaped 
 her understanding of decolonisation in institutional settings and the 
 responsibilities researchers hold in ensuring their work is not extractive 
 but genuinely transformative.\n\n\n	Jack Shiers:- Decolonising Theory: 
 Internal Coloniality\n\n\nJack’s paper relates to ‘internal 
 coloniality’\, a theoretical revision of ‘internal colonialism’. 
 Applied by social scientists to diverse international contexts\, internal 
 colonialism refers to the domination – political\, economic\, cultural\, 
 linguistic – of peripheral regions by the central political power of the 
 nation-state. However\, in implicating semantics of colonialism proper\, 
 the theory exposes inherent tensions when applied to western European 
 contexts\, as the traditional roles of ‘coloniser’ and ‘colonised’ 
 become increasingly fluid.\n\n\n	Perline Walsh and Ashley Pfeifer: What is 
 LU STAR (Student Action for Refugees)?\n\n\nWe are a group of students at 
 Lancaster University\, and we look forward to talking to you about what we 
 do to support issues relating asylum seekers and refugees. This includes 
 the volunteering we do in town\, our weekly events on campus\, fundraising 
 events\, opportunities for you to join upcoming events\, and highlighting 
 the importance of getting involved with this community. \n\n
