Creative Activism Art Development Alternatives

项目摘要

This project seeks to develop a researcher-activist-practitioner network to explore the ways in which art and creative activism can contribute to efforts to understand and enact development alternatives. Development alternatives is understood to mean the diversity of practice and thinking that offers an alternative to mainstream development approaches (e.g. neo-liberal, service delivery, aid-centred, hierarchical, entrepreneurial), in particular, diverse voices and approaches from the Global South rarely heard in development debates and practice. Despite their success in terms of meeting targets, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) failed to engage sufficiently with inequalities and the structural causes of poverty and injustice. In contrast, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) present a more comprehensive and inclusive vision of development, partly as a result of a consultative process to develop the goals that incuded the voices of the 'poorest and most vulnerable' (UN, 2015, para. 6). As such, the SDGs may offer space for development alternatives to emerge, but only if there is strong civil society participation to insist on the reordering of development priorities. Exploiting this potential, therefore, will require the involvement of new actors in development policy-making and new ways to encourage the voice and participation of groups traditionally left outside the development process. In this context, the aims and objectives of this network are innovative in five main ways: 1) It will be convened by an academic-practitioner partnership between the Centre for Applied Human Rights (CAHR) and Politics Department at the University of York, and the international development agency ActionAid. 2) The network will bring together artists, academics, activists and development practitioners from the UK, Bangladesh and Uganda - Bangladesh and Uganda will serve as regional hubs to facilitate participation from neighbouring countries. 3) The network will critically explore how art and creative activism - and specifically the themes of disruption, performance and translation - can articulate, shape and help deliver development alternatives privileged by those whose voices are often marginalised in development debates, and the extent to which these alternatives complement, enhance or are in tension with the global goals for development set out by the SDGs. 4) The network will deploy creative methodologies, specifically the use of fictional future scenarios, to trigger debate and shape alternatives. Art and activist workshops, followed by national reflection workshops, will be held in Dhaka and Kampala, followed by a final reflection workshop. This timeline of events will build momentum for the research network, and for a series of projects and funding applications on the theme of development alternatives. 5) Through ActionAid and local actors, the network will have clear pathways to impact. The network will pursue four pathways to impact: Policy, organisational and practice impacts on NGOs; Public engagement, outreach and local impact in Uganda and Bangladesh; Methodological; Network building. Our most immediate impacts will be achieved within the non-governmental development sector internationally, in the UK and in the regions where the events will take place, but our aim is also to inform the practices, reflections and policies of international organisations (UNESCO, European Union) through our collaboration with ActionAid. Local impact in Uganda and Bangladesh, both recipients of high levels of ODA, will be achieved by working in partnership with local offices of ActionAid and other local actors in Dhaka and Kampala.

该项目旨在发展一个研究人员-活动家-实践者网络，以探索艺术和创造性活动家如何能够为理解和颁布发展替代方案的努力做出贡献。发展备选办法被认为是指实践和思维的多样性，可替代主流发展办法(例如，新自由主义、提供服务、以援助为中心、分级、创业)，特别是在发展辩论和实践中很少听到的来自全球南方的不同声音和办法。尽管千年发展目标在实现目标方面取得了成功，但它们未能充分处理不平等以及贫穷和不公正的结构性原因。相比之下，可持续发展目标(SDGs)提出了更全面和更具包容性的发展愿景，这在一定程度上是协商进程的结果，目的是制定包含“最贫穷和最弱势群体”声音的目标(联合国，2015年，第6段)。因此，可持续发展目标可能会为发展备选方案的出现提供空间，但前提是必须有民间社会的大力参与，以坚持重新排列发展优先事项的顺序。因此，要挖掘这一潜力，就需要新的行为者参与发展决策，并以新的方式鼓励传统上被排除在发展进程之外的群体发声和参与。在这方面，该网络的宗旨和目标在五个方面具有创新性：1)它将由应用人权中心、约克大学政治系和国际发展机构行动援助组织之间的学术-实践者伙伴关系召集。2)该网络将汇集来自英国、孟加拉国和乌干达的艺术家、学者、活动家和发展实践者--孟加拉国和乌干达将作为区域中心，促进邻国的参与。3)该网络将批判性地探索艺术和创造性激进主义--特别是颠覆、表演和翻译等主题--如何阐明、塑造和帮助实现那些在发展辩论中声音往往被边缘化的人享有的发展替代方案，以及这些替代方案在多大程度上补充、加强或与可持续发展目标设定的全球发展目标相抵触。4)该网络将采用创造性的方法，特别是使用虚构的未来情景，以引发辩论并塑造替代方案。将在达卡和坎帕拉举办艺术和活动家讲习班，然后是国家反思讲习班，然后是最后反思讲习班。这一活动时间表将为研究网络以及以替代发展为主题的一系列项目和资金申请建立势头。5)通过行动援助和当地行动者，该网络将有明确的影响途径。该网络将通过四条途径产生影响：政策、组织和实践对非政府组织的影响；乌干达和孟加拉国的公众参与、外联和地方影响；方法；网络建设。我们最直接的影响将在国际上的非政府发展部门内实现，在英国和将举办活动的地区，但我们的目标也是通过我们与行动援助的合作，向国际组织(教科文组织、欧盟)的做法、思考和政策提供信息。乌干达和孟加拉国这两个接受高水平官方发展援助的国家将通过与行动援助组织当地办事处以及达卡和坎帕拉的其他当地行为者合作，在当地产生影响。
