"..wellness is about how to navigate living in a time of such flux, such violence, such generational trauma, and that can only be done through a collective process."
Welcome! We're so excited to have you listen to our new pod, Towards. Towards unpacks wellness through a decolonial and feminist lens. For our first episode, we have Yaliwe Clarke from the African Gender Institute over for coffee to discuss what it means to decolonise wellness.
