In this mini episode Louise and Madeleine discuss their key (un)learnings and takeaways from Season One. Reflecting on their positionality they examine where their own white fragility came up in the series, intellectualizing vs practicing reflexivity and the importance of community.

Funding Provider: This podcast is funded by the EU's Cost Action Decolonising Development (CA19129): www.cost.eu. The Action works towards a resetting and diversification of the structures, institutions and spaces in which knowledge about and for development is produced, shared, contested and put into practice. Decolonisation of knowledge about ‘development’ cannot mean to maintain a paternalist binary of those already developed and those less developed but must scrutinize the structures and institutions that maintain power imbalances and the ideas that support paternalistic relations and assumptions of superiority according to intersectional (read: gendered, racialized, classed etc.) objectification of the Other

Episode Two: For our second episode we are joined by Dr Sharon Stein Assistant Professor in the Department of Educational Studies at the University of British Columbia, and Dalila P. Coelho a Ph.D researcher at the University of Porto. In this episode we ask if 'confronting coloniality' provides a better framing for our pedagogical work, what we can (un)learn from the field of Global Education and explore the importance of language in teaching on global challenges.
