Moving beyond symbolic gestures and institutional frameworks alone, it centers the authority, knowledge, and agency of communities whose heritage has been displaced. Through a combination of artistic practice, critical dialogue, and collaborative research, the Gathering advances rematriation not only as return, but as the restoration of living relationships, cultural continuity, and self-determination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The process begins with a 2026 convening in Mexico, where international participants will co-develop the conceptual, ethical, and operational foundations of the initiative. This work will lead to a major global Gathering in 2028 in Berlin\u2014an open, public-facing event that will bring together artists, curators, scholars, and community leaders from across continents. Designed as both a working platform and a public forum, the 2028 Gathering will include presentations, artistic interventions, and an international call for papers, positioning it as a unique space where practice, policy, and imagination intersect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At its core, the Gathering seeks to build new, long-term models of collaboration that move restitution from a reactive process to a shared, forward-looking practice\u2014one that redefines the role of institutions, reactivates cultural knowledge, and opens pathways for more just and equitable futures.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div
