"Decolonising Imagination: Reclaiming Knowledge, Identity & Creative Futures” is an online talk exploring how colonial systems continue to shape the ways we learn, create, and understand knowledge. Drawing from my work through The A.K.A.N.I Toolkit, the session will discuss decolonial approaches to design, collective imagination, Afrikan and Indigenous knowledge systems, and alternative ways of thinking about creativity, identity, community, and the future.
Blending personal reflection, research, visual process work, and audience discussion, the talk invites participants to critically rethink dominant frameworks within education and creative practice while collectively imagining more just, connected, and culturally grounded futures.
The talk will be around 1 hour followed by 30 minutes of questions and discussion..
