Less than 2% of the articles from the global south made it into the top 1% of most-cited articles globally. I have really liked working with people from the global north, such as those from Canada and the United States. Many institutions, or individuals, in the global south need the funding and prestige that comes with international partnerships and will take whatever comes along. But researchers from both the global north and the global south need to talk about these colonial legacies — from legal, moral and ethical perspectives — to solve them. Inviting someone just because they are from the global south is worse than not inviting them at all.
