Unlearning technologies in Kibera.

[Nele Van Doninck @nelevd]

I did it!! On June 24th, I successfully defended my PhD thesis called 'Mundane Disruption. (Un)Learning technologies in Kibera' at the department of Social and Cultural Anthropology at KU Leuven, a thesis written under the generous guidance of prof. dr. Filip De Boeck.

I have packed my bags and moved.

Please come find me on my new playing ground in the butterfly app.

I am so grateful for all the people I have gotten to know during this trajectory, and I want to say a huge thank you to everyone involved, and everyone who supported me during this trajectory. I could not have done it without you...

My article on digital technology, self-directed learning and ‘YouTube University’ in Kibera, Nairobi. Based on my PhD on digital learning, and ‘majority technologies’, digital technologies that function in contexts vastly different from elite worlds.

Brilliant keynote by prof Mordecai Ogada on conservation and its uncomfortable truths. What a start to #IASC2023

What we see with #AI is basically Move Fast and Break Things on steroids.
Companies rush to release anything they can label as AI without appropriate tests or risk assessments, simply because if you are among the first to announce the product you can market it well. Unsustainable
