ABOUT THE LECTURE
This lecture unpacks how the key characteristics of coloniality are fundamentally incompatible with
peaceful societies. It shows how such characteristics are intimately intertwined with conflict and, are
therefore, essential to address in strategies for conflict transformation and peacebuilding.
