Racism is embedded in structures and power dynamics, and the peacebuilding, development and humanitarian sectors are no exception.  

The current global pandemic, growing scrutiny of systemic injustice and racism, and rising violence and polarisation continue to put strain on communities around the world. This multitude of challenges disproportionately affects fragile and conflict-affected communities.  

Adeso, the Alliance for Peacebuilding, Peace Direct and Women of Color Advancing Peace and Security invite local activists, changemakers, organizers, healers, and peacebuilders to a three-day conversation on the ‘Decolonising Aid and Peacebuilding’.  

Using Platform4Dialogue, we will hold a three-day conversation from 2-4 November 2020 to have a conversation on how to effectively address structural racism, and decolonise the aid sector.
