The UNESCO Chair on Slavery and Afrodescendants and the Library of the Universitat Jaume I have inaugurated the exhibition “Africa at the UJI. Bibliographic collections”, a bibliographic exhibition organised on the occasion of the celebration, on 24 January, of the World Day for African and Afrodescendant Culture that invites to explore, from multiple perspectives, the legacy of African culture present in the collections of the UJI Library.

The exhibition was presented by the Vice-Rector for Social Responsibility, Inclusive Policies and Equality, Elsa González, and the director of the Chair, José Antonio Piqueras. As they explained, the exhibition offers a careful selection of books and resources that address topics such as history, culture, art, languages and traditional knowledge, music, voyages of exploration and modern African literature.

Thus, the exhibition not only invites visitors to discover the richness of Africa, but also to reflect on the contributions of people of African descent globally, a literary tribute that seeks to recognise the power of culture as a bridge between communities and its role in building an inclusive and diverse future.

The exhibition “Africa at the UJI. Bibliographic collections” can be visited in the exhibition hall of the UJI Library until 7 February.

**About the Chair**

The UNESCO Chair in Slavery and Afrodescendants of the Universitat Jaume I aims to study and disseminate the historical conditions that gave rise to slavery and its impact on Western culture, with a legacy of racism and discrimination that is linked to new forms of subjugation and exclusion.

The Chair’s objectives include the analysis and dissemination of current problems of racial exclusion in the context of current South-North migratory conditions, leading to reflection on the historical creation of stereotypes based on African slavery and its legacy.
