1B.00001: Decolonize, not Diversify: From Coloniality to the Decolonization of Knowledge Invited Speaker: Nelson M. Torres While formal colonial relations are often considered to be over or almost over, both, colonialism and coloniality continue impacting multiple areas, including teaching and research.
