This set of files contains information from an Open Thanatology webinar exploring the tensions around decolonising bereavement and grief. The session was hosted by Dr Jane McCarthy and featured a chair, a discussant, and three panellists. This included: Janet Wildman, Hady Kamar, Chukumeka Maxwell, Jacqui Stedmon, and Samira Ben Omar. Details about all of the contributors can be found in the ‘webinar details’ files. Joanne Jordan, co-chair of Open Thanatology, supported the facilitation of ‘questions from the audience’.

The files in this project include:

- Edited webinar recordings (trimmed to cut pre and post-meeting briefings)

- Autogenerated transcript

- File about the event details and further information about the contributors

All participants and attendees were informed that the webinar was being recorded and would be published on ORDO. This was both at the start of the session by Joanne Jordan and in the chat box. Anyone who registered for the event was also informed before the event that it was to be recorded.

Anyone wishing to cite this resource should seek to attribute items to individual speakers were possible.
