The Access For who? Podcast hosted by Chao Tayiana Maina and Molemo Moiloa is a five-part mini-series that looks to begin a conversation on the digitisation of African heritage. While digitisation is often considered a strategy for future-oriented safe keeping, distribution and greater engagement, they ask - for who? And for what purposes? And are we making decisions about digitisation that ensure these objectives are met in ethical, equitable ways?

Episode 4: African Data Futures

As we move towards the end of the series we ask - How can we build a sustainable digital infrastructure that is people-centred and Africa centred? We reflect on indigenous data sovereignty, data stewardship and creative strategies toward collective care for digital data. Positing that digital collections are not a point of reversal to an idealized past but rather a point of departure toward a collectively imagined future.

Speakers: Angela Okune, Temi Odumosu, Minne Atairu, Andrea Wallace, Molemo Moiloa, Neema Iyer, Chao T. Maina
