In order to break the scientific knowledge monopoly but also in order to contribute to social justice, we share our institutional platforms with those underrepresented as knowledge producers. In Kanaky New Caledonia, this implies acknowledging Oceanian students, artists and everyday activists as beholders of expertise. 

This video takes us behind the scenes of a collaborative project based on decentered linguistic expertise. Photography and street art were used as means to both tackle "linguistic micro-agressions" and produce socially inclusive research outcomes.

Special thanks to the man behind the camera : Ritchi Togna. 

Oleeti!
