Provides the theoretical frameworks and tools for the decolonization of global health, a forum to engage with faculty and scholars on the history and coloniality of global health, and the opportunity to learn from the experiences of activists and practitioners in order to move toward the “decolonization” of global health. Asks participants to challenge the dominant narratives in global health through discussion of the history and practice of the field, self-reflection of individual and institutional power, and possibilities for action, as well as imagine what “decolonizing” global health could look like through the development and execution of change-making action. Recognizes that decolonization must involve actions that change longstanding practices in global health, and that a discussion series such as this may serve only as a contribution towards further action.
