📆 Wann? Mittwoch, 07.05. 11:00 - 13:00
📍 Wo? Campus UHH (Startpunkt: vor dem Hauptgebäude, Edmund-Siemers-Allee 1)

Entdecke bei unserer Campusführung die verborgene koloniale Geschichte der Universität Hamburg! Mit der App 'Koloniale Orte', kuratiert von der Forschungsstelle 'Hamburgs (Post-)Koloniales Erbe', tauchen wir in die Vergangenheit des ehemaligen Kolonialinstituts ein. Wir beleuchten, wie koloniale Wissenschaft unser Verständnis der Klimakrise bis heute prägt und warum wir die Klimakrise nicht verstehen können, ohne koloniale Verhältnisse zu beleuchten. Friederike Odenwald von der postkolonialen Forschungsstelle wird den Rundgang mit Inputs an den verschiedenen Stationen begleiten. Wir freuen uns auf euch!

Die Veranstaltung findet im Rahmen der Climate Week statt von @studentsforfuture_hh
