dc.description.abstract | We are conscious of the fact that the debate on the appropriateness of certain representations of the world, as used by international agencies to communicate their purpose, and mission is long and complex. This brief did not set out to give definitive answers. Rather, in the spirit of decolonial studies, it aims to propose new questions and points of view on the topic, encouraging intentionality in visual communication. The brief aims to contribute to the current debate on decolonial policy making. Taking as a reference framework the Colonial Matrix of Power (Quijano, 2000), the brief outlines that choices related to visual communication have the power to convey messages on how development agencies position themselves in relation to decolonization and to coloniality. It continues with the analysis of how international agencies working in development, use visual representations of the world, such as maps and globes, to communicate their vision, mission, and strategy. It concludes by proposing actions and recommendations. | en |
