SUMMARY:Exhibition: "Deal with it – African heritage in Basel"
DESCRIPTION:With the university's clear commitment to research about\, in\,
  with and for Africa\, Basel has developed into a national and internation
 al centre for interdisciplinary African research. This development is base
 d on a longer tradition of academic engagement with Africa in the Basel re
 gion. Thus\, Basel hosts a unique concentration of Africa-related institut
 ions. Basel is home to a unique concentration of Africa-related institutio
 ns\, including the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute\, the Museum
  der Kulturen Basel\, Mission 21 and the Basler Afrika Bibliographien\, al
 l of which have decades of experience. 			Why is it in Basel\, in Switzerl
 and\, of all places\, that there is such an accumulation of institutions r
 elated to the African continent with international appeal? The exhibition 
 addresses this and similar questions. It presents the individual as well a
 s common history of these Basel institutions from the perspective of five 
 students. The institutions as well as the visitors to the exhibition are i
 nvited to engage with this perspective\, thus creating a space for discour
 se. In this way\, "Deal with it" aims to realise a long overdue critical 
 and differentiated examination of the history of Basel's institutional Afr
 ican landscape.
