Description
Decolonising Education for Sustainable Futures was a series of three seminars convened
under the auspices of the UNESCO Chair in inclusive, good quality education at the University
of Bristol. This was a joint effort that conveyed ideas from artists, activists, practitioners,
academics, and international organisations’ delegates. It aimed to share possibilities and
reimagine education in more equitable, reparative, just, and peace-promoting forms. It
further aspired to provide thinking to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organisation (UNESCO)’s Futures of Education initiative. In this context, the School of
Education’s Bristol Conversations in Education co-organised three webinars on the 10th, 17th
and 24th of February 2021 to address different facets of the topic at hand. Each seminar
congregated nearly 300 participants from 79 countries. This report revisits the three events
by summarising the presenters’ insights and attendees’ active participation in the chat and
Q&A sessions.
