Introducing the 'Does Your God Sleep?' project which explores young Nigerians’ relationship with fear and God through a series of discussions with various individuals over the course of two days in 2023. It is organised under seven questions: Who or what is God to you? Does your God sleep? Is your God's influence limited to you and your territory? What is fear to you? Do you fear God? What role does fear play in society as you see it? And does your God fear what you fear?

The seven episodes are a product of an event where an intimate space was designed for inquiry and reflection on spirituality and community. And it is the prototype for a research practice I hope to continue.

Come with an open mind.

Knowledge creates options.

Hello, Immaculata here. A quick summary of what I’ve been up to so far this year: the Culture Pay Survey aimed at understanding the financial struggles of cultural workers in Nigeria; working on my vision for a public humanities library; and publishing the Restful anthology.
