The main measure of the project is the development of a digital map in Berlin and four other cities in cooperation with local groups. This map shows through min. 15 entries per city highlights local-global connections and thus promotes the perception of international ties through shared global history. Components of the project Project are educational measures and the further development of existing global history materials such as the eLearning tool <a href=\"http:\/\/www.connecting-the-dots.org\">connecting the dots: <\/a>&#8220;History(s) of oppression and resistance&#8221;. <a href=\"https:\/\/glokal.org\/projekte\/lokale-globalgeschichte-vergangenheit-verstehen-zukunft-gestalten\/\">[more &#8230;]<\/a>    <\/p>\n<p><strong>KlimaDeSol\u2014Decolonial and Solidarity-Based Climate Action (2020\u20132022)<br \/>\n<\/strong>The German climate movement\u2014as we have known it for many years, as well as new movements like Fridays for Future\u2014have established themselves as white-German movements in which white-dominated debates and interpretations prevail, that remain \u201camong themselves,\u201d and <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2020\/01\/30\/africa\/uganda-activist-vanessa-nakate-cropped-intl\/index.html\">that exclude<\/a> the struggles of BPoC, diasporic perspectives, and their representatives.

They are being trained as facilitators for racism awareness and empowerment. The project also includes awareness-raising workshops for members of the majority society who help shape the welcoming culture, as well as empowerment workshops for people with refugee backgrounds and experiences of racism.

The exhibition builds upon the \u201cVerkn\u00fcpfte Geschichten\u201d project and the resulting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.connecting-the-dots.org\/\">e-learning tool<\/a>. From a historical-postcolonial perspective, it connects the themes of colonialism, racism in Germany, humanity and nature, labor, capitalism, democracy and power, culture, migration and displacement, gender and sexuality, and development. The traveling exhibition can be booked starting in 2019.     <a href=\"https:\/\/glokal.org\/en\/glokal-e-v-power-critical-education-and-consulting\/connecting-the-dots-2\/\">[more &#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Postcolonial Perspectives on Development Cooperation (2013\u20132017)<\/strong><br \/>\nglokal has repeatedly carried out projects on postcolonial perspectives. These projects created opportunities for staff members of development-focused nongovernmental organizations to analyze and adapt their own work from a postcolonial perspective. Through open one-day and in-house workshops, process facilitation, and consulting, opportunities for engagement were created in both the short and medium term.  <\/p>\n<p>Among other things, these projects gave rise to the online resource platform <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mangoes-and-bullets.org\/\">\u201cmangoes &#038; bullets. Resources for Thinking and Acting Critically About Racism and Power,\u201d<\/a> where we have been providing methods, background texts, films and videos, activism, and art since 2015, as well as the publication <a href=\"https:\/\/glokal.org\/publikationen\/das-maerchen-von-der-augenhoehe\/\">\u201cThe Fairy Tale of Equality: Power and Solidarity in North-South Partnerships\u201d<\/a> (2016).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interconnected Stories (2016\u20132017)<\/strong><br \/>\nIn 2016 and 2017, the project focused on historical learning from a postcolonial perspective. It included the development of methods, professional development programs, the creation of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.connecting-the-dots.org\/\">e-learning tool<\/a>, and a <a href=\"https:\/\/glokal.org\/en\/glokal-e-v-power-critical-education-and-consulting\/connecting-the-dots-2\/\">publication<\/a>. For the e-learning tool, more than 160 quotations from the last 500 years were researched; interpretive guides and historical contextualizations were designed and integrated into the digital interface created by glokal. The publication offers both background texts on the ten topics covered by the e-learning tool\u2014ranging from capitalism to colonialism\u2014as well as texts for practical educational work using our timeline method.   <\/p>\n<p>The measures aimed to fill knowledge gaps regarding historical-postcolonial topics, as well as to further develop the pedagogical basis for historical-postcolonial learning. The eLearning tool &#8216;connecting the dots&#8217; was awarded as an outstanding example of global learning and education for sustainable development at the education congress <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weltweitwissen2018.de\/\">WeltWeitWissen 2018<\/a>. In our follow-up project &#8216;connecting the dots&#8217; we build on the results of &#8216;Linked stories&#8217; and develop a traveling exhibition.  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Decolonial Visual Worlds (2016)<\/strong><br \/>\nThe project addressed the long-standing issue of racist depictions in development policy communications, particularly in fundraising campaigns. The project was carried out by glokal in cooperation with the \u201cInitiative Schwarze Menschen in Deutschland\u201d (<a href=\"http:\/\/isdonline.de\/\">ISD-Bund e.V.<\/a>). We sought to conceive and establish new visual languages as an alternative to prevailing visual practices. These were discussed and tested collaboratively during creative workshops. Several artists subsequently designed development policy posters that do not perpetuate racism. Following the workshop, these were displayed on billboards in public spaces throughout Berlin. They can also be seen in the publication <a href=\"https:\/\/glokal.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Die-Spitze-des-Eisbergs_e-pub_final.pdf\">\u201cDie Spitze des Eisbergs\u201d (The Tip of the
