Hallmarks at Home – From language to practice: working ethically with global communities and collections – POSTPONED

THIS SESSION HAS BEEN POSTPONED. A NEW DATE WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON.

This session looks at how to build ethical and engaged relationships with global majority* communities.

Participants will:

• learn how the Ahmed Iqbal Ullah RACE Centre & Education Trust builds thoughtful and ethical relationships with global majority communities, through their archive collections-based work;
• consider the principles of ethical engagement work;
• share their own practices and experiences;
• and reflect on how we can ensure our work is ethical and respectful of global majority communities.

While the session focus on archive work with global majority communities, participants will find much that they can apply to work with other communities and in non-archive focused work.

*by global majority, we mean communities whose roots are in Africa, the Caribbean, Latin-America, and Asia, as well as indigenous people in Europe, Australasia and North America. We use this term, where appropriate, as an alternative to BAME. Where we can we name specific communities than using a collective term.
