Co-Creating Decolonized Knowledges through Arts
This seminar aims at enhancing the importance, and uniqueness of arts in decolonising knowledge.
The idea of decolonising knowledge is a central feature of collaborative partners and co-creating knowledge between the University of Arts and its partner institutions in East Africa (Tanzania).
