SUMMARY:APPG - Afrikan Reparations\, African Restitution
DESCRIPTION:All-Party Parliamentary Group on Afrikan Reparations discussion on the restitution of African artefacts held in UK heritage collections.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nAll-Party Parliamentary Group on Afrikan Reparations (APPG-AR)\, invites you to explore the issues\, concerns and desires for the restitution of African artefacts held in UK heritage collections. AFFORD shares secretariat responsibilities for the APPG Afrikan Reparations\, focusing on issues of the restitution of cultural artefacts and ancestral remains. \nEstimates suggest that up to 90% of sub-Saharan Africa’s cultural heritage is held outside the African continent. A result of conquest\, plunder\, colonisation\, as well as legitimate trade and exchange\, although this figure is disputed by some experts. \nMost of the UK’s African artefacts are held outside the national museums and collections\, and not governed by UK legislation. Currently\, there are no accurate figures of the total number of African artefacts and human remains held in UK museums\, libraries\, palaces\, and other public collections. The vast majority of these artefacts are held in storage and not on public display. \nJoin us to explore ways forward on these important issues and learn more about the work of the APPG-AR on African restitution. \nHosted by African Foundation for Development (AFFORD) \nChair\nBell Ribeiro-Addy MP – Chair of the All-Party Group on Afrikan Reparations \nSpeakers\n\nOnyekachi Wambu\, Executive Director of AFFORD\nElsie Owusu OBE RIBA FRSA\, Architect and Specialist Conservation Architect\, interior and urban designer\nYvette Abrahams Ph. D. in Economic History\, Consultant for government and various NGOs
