Linger Longer with Youth on the Move Roundtable

30 Jul 2024

Youth on the Move (YOTM) in collaboration with HAB, conducted the Linger Longer roundtable session, in conjunction with The Waiting Room exhibition. As part of the roundtable, participants engaged in discussions that investigated Southern urbanities that youth produce on the move - through short - and long-term mobilities in/across the radically changing urban spaces.

Accompanying the roundtable was a performance story, titled ÌGBÀLÈ / Pasca Ruang / Post-Space, by Segun Adefila, founder of Crown Troupe of Africa, (Nigeria) in collaboration with Surabaya performance artists from Studio IMMATERIAL (Ryan Herdiansyah, Dimas Ijat, Rezza Lellyana, and Dwiputra Rizkyandhani), which you can watch below.

This performance was the outcome of exchanges in Surabaya and inspiration from the various practices of youth across the global south narrated in the exhibition. The three events (Linger Longer, The Waiting Room, and Post-Space) were co-produced by scholars and practitioners across Asia, Africa and beyond. They demonstrate collaborative engagements in collecting and (re)narrating the young peoples’ stories; making the grounded knowledge accessible to a wider audience.
