In this episode we reflect on the journey of building Open Restitution Africa and invite others to think with us about what the future of African restitution could look like.
The central question that resonates throughout this conversation is ‘On whose terms?’. On whose terms will the work of restitution be done? On whose terms will its value be determined?
To our esteemed audience who have journeyed with us across five episodes over the years and who have contributed immensely to the work we have done, thank you. As our project comes to an end in 2026 we hope that this series inspires you to share this knowledge with others and to continue advocating for the restitution of African cultural heritage, the preservation of indigenous knowledge and the upholding of human dignity in various ways.
Restitution is urgent, necessary work, thank you for walking this journey with us.
