Subversive Reticence and Gender Negotiations in the Colonial Contact Zone: Lady Anne Barnard’s 'Cape' Writings
Welcome to Vaccine Voyages, an exhibition by the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities at the University of Edinburgh. Created for the 2022 Edinburgh Science Festival, Vaccine Voyages looks back at the first global vaccination campaign, and invites you to reflect on the legacies of colonial medicine today. How does colonialism echo into the lived experience of disease and its prevention globally? Can vaccines help reimagine future worlds, rather than remake colonial pasts?
This project, Decolonising Structures in Higher Education, came together for a period of four days, 1-4 March 2022. The first two days allowed the primary participants, Dr CL Nash, Dr Siphiwe Dube and Ms. Soko-de Jong, to explore major grant applications.
