Colonial history concerns us all and affects not only the past but also the future. How can we shape a just and peaceful future? The panel discussion organized by Mission 21 and the Museum of Cultures on October 15 will explore this topic in depth, featuring international experts from various fields of knowledge, invited by Mission 21. The panel discussion will be complemented by an art performance.

How can we shape a decolonial, just, and peaceful future? Experts from various fields will discuss this topic at the Museum der Kulturen in Basel. What makes this discussion unique is that the experts invited by Mission 21 have already explored the topic during the first part of the «RoundTable» symposium earlier that afternoon and will also present findings and insights from their workshops and joint reflections on the panel.

Public panel discussion «Decolonizing the Future» at the Museum der Kulturen Basel, on Thursday, October 15, 2026:
