F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Event Description

Global movements like #MeToo and #BlackLivesMatter have reignited calls for social justice in international development. Many donors and non-governmental organizations are responding but still struggle to address systemic inequality and decolonize their work. Development research can be a critical tool in these efforts. Reimagining systems and fostering equality and social justice requires us to ask: How can we decolonize research and disrupt unequal gender and power relations? How can the research process itself be transformative and an opportunity for co-liberation? What practical tools and steps facilitate power sharing? How can research, like gender analyses, be used to advance decolonization and social justice?

Join the virtual webinar for a thought-provoking conversation with researchers, social justice advocates, and development practitioners as we discuss examples and practical ways forward.
