Abstract
In this panel, Rosa Cordillera A. Castillo, Antony Pattathu, and June Rubis discuss and
emphasise the importance of critical research ethics in decolonial praxis within academia,
highlighting the harmful effects of irresponsible and extractive scholarship that perpetuates
epistemic violence and injustice by disregarding Southern epistemologies, knowledge-
makers, agency, and history. They argue that confronting the embeddedness of knowledge
production in imperial, colonial, and patriarchal ideologies, practices, and histories,
addressing colonial continuities and complicities and working towards preventing their
perpetuation in research are crucial for engaging in a rehumanising and redistributive
academic praxis. This includes challenging the limitations of superficial attempts to
decolonise academic institutions and the role of whiteness in decoloniality, as well as the
exclusion of Indigenous voices and failure to confront ongoing colonial violence. Thus, they
suggest that a more meaningful decolonial project requires remaking relationships towards
liberatory justice, including ethical collaboration and accountability with the communities
researchers work with.
