[Training4lifescience] Invitation to seminar: "Digital Archive Footprints: between digital infrastructure and colonial history" - WiNoDa Knowledge Lab

Dear colleague, We would like to invite you to the last three sessions of the online seminar series Ethics in Action: Working with Sensitive Data from Scientific Collections<https://winoda.de/en/educational-offers/seminar-series-ethics-in-action/>, organised by the WiNoDa Knowledge Lab<https://winoda.de/en/english/>. The upcoming seminar dives into the intersection of digital infrastructure and colonial history for natural history objects, bringing together expert voices from museums, research institutions, and communities of origin. Digital Archive Footprints: Reflections on Digitisation Training and Research at Museum für Naturkunde Berlin June 29th, 4:00–5:30 pm CEST A collaboration between the Milele Museum (Rwanda), The Space Botswana, and SAVVY Kwata (Cameroon), the project Digital Archive Footprints<https://themuseumslab.org/en/digital-archive> traces colonial-era biological collections in German institutions and works with origin communities to reinterpret and return that knowledge. Hear firsthand reflections on what a hands-on digitisation training phase at Museum für Naturkunde Berlin revealed — its possibilities, its limitations, and what it means to work with collections still inaccessible to the communities they belong to. Digital Archive Footprints is one of the projects selected by the TheMuseumsLab CollabFund<https://themuseumslab.org/en/activities/collabfund>nd>, which is funded by the German Federal Cultural Foundation. 👉 Register here<https://winoda.de/en/event/seminar-series-digital-archive-footprints/> or visit our website winoda.de/english All sessions are held online in English and free to attend, but registration is required. We look forward to seeing you there!
