Baku: An international conference on 'Neocolonialism and Global Inequality', organized by the Baku Initiative Group (BIG), will take place in Baku.

According to Azerbaijan State News Agency, the event will gather anthropologists and psychotherapists who work directly with indigenous communities affected by neocolonialism, experts involved in creating a Virtual Museum dedicated to colonialism, leaders of independence movements from affected regions, and researchers specializing in neocolonialism.

The conference will explore the traumatic and social experiences of people subjected to colonization across diverse cultural and social contexts.
