This panel will discuss how we use open licensed and open sourced technologies to democratise resources and knowledge with African objects acquired during colonisation. We will discuss how our projects have been reusing and rethinking objects, from the continent and the Diaspora, held in British museums and archives. In addition, we'll address the potential role and limitations of open licenses in "decolonising" museums and building knowledge equity of and for communities whose knowledge systems been historically undervalued.
