The workshop might be interesting for early career researchers with an interest in socio-legal studies, governance, rights and development in Africa.
This workshop facilitates exchange and dialogue between 12 early career researchers working on topics of law, (human) rights and governance in Africa. We welcome researchers from a wide range of disciplines – i.e.
African studies, law, anthropology, sociology, geography, political science and development studies – to apply in order to meet and exchange ideas and findings. Through adopting an interdisciplinary approach, we bring together researchers from different universities, faculties, and departments to exchange and work on new research agendas from diverse perspectives. Keynote lectures will be given by: Professor Elisio Macamo and Professor Thomas Bierschenk. This workshop is funded by LeidenASA and the African Studies Centre Leiden University, the Netherlands, and part of Africa2020.
