Event: Africa Writes, 1-3 July 2016, London
June 8, 2016
Africa Writes is the Royal African Society’s annual literature festival. Celebrating its 5th year, will bring together over 50 authors, poets, publishers and experts for a stimulating and exciting three days! Every year the festival showcases established and emerging talent from the African continent and its diaspora in what is now the UK’s biggest celebration of contemporary African writing taking place over an exciting summer weekend. The festival features book launches, readings, author appearances, panel discussions, youth and children’s workshops, and other activities.
This year’s highlights include the symposium “Africa in Translation: Memory and Remembering” on friday, 1 July 2016 (10.00-13.00). The symposium aims to explore the place of translation in the contested spaces of memory and re-membering, and its impact on society. The discussants – Veronique Tadjo, Kama Sywor Kamanda, Abdilatif Abdalla, Roland Glasser, Ida Hadjivayani and others – look into Caleb Femi, the meaning of ‘the African body’ across time and space, and into the place of literature in cross-cultural scholarship, writing, reading, translation, publishing and performance.

Representations of alterity in contemporary postcolonial “texts”, 18 May 2016, London
Finishes: 18 May 2016 Time: 7:00 PM
Venue: Russell Square: College Buildings
Room: L67
Type of Event: Forum
Series: CCLPS Critical Forum
The condition of postcoloniality, which some argue characterises the contemporary world and its narrative reproductions, raises important questions about how to critically conceptualise the postcolonial nation-state and its constitutional inclusion of ethnocultural difference. Both postcolonial theory and postcolonial “texts” caution against normative, hegemonic representations. Analyses of the nation-state, ethnocultural variegation and alterity within the postcolonial “text” must be developed with this critique in mind.
In this post-graduate seminar, organized within the Critical Forum Series of the Centre for Cultural, Literary and Postcolonial Studies and co-hosted by English Studies at SOAS, three PhD students will share their research related to the challenges of transcending normative, hegemonic representations of alterity, the nation-state and identity.

Cambridge African Film Festival, Cambridge (UK), 16-24 October 2015
October 13, 2015
The Cambridge African Film Festival (CAFF) is the oldest annual African film festival in the UK. It was initiated in May 2002 by a small group of graduate students at the University of Cambridge as a way of screening the best contemporary African films, increasing knowledge and awareness of African and black culture in the UK, providing a UK audience for African filmmakers, and offering an important counterbalance to the Western media’s stereotyping of Africa. Now in its thirteenth year, and promising to continue for many years to come, the CAFF has won a reputation as a high-profile and important cinematic and educational event. Taking place in and amongst the magical 800-year-old buildings and natural surroundings of the University of Cambridge, the CAFF offers a very special experience to guests and visitors.
The festival is partnered with Film Africa, to whom we would like to offer our sincerest thanks for their ongoing support.

International Women's Day 7th March 2015
March 10, 2015
In honour of International Women’s Day this Sunday March 7, Planet Earth Institute wanted to spotlight four inspirational women who are working in science and tech in Africa.
The following is taken directly from this website where you can find further information and videos.
1) Mariéme Jamme
Originally from Senegal, Marieme is a tireless advocate for technology and the importance of building STEM skills on the continent. She is also CEO of SpotOne Global Solutions, a consultancy that helps enterprise tech companies get a foothold in Europe, Asia and Africa. Here’s a video of her passionately explaining what Africa’s scientific independence means to her.
2) Afua Osei and Yasmin Belo-Osagie, She Leads Africa
Management consultants by day, Afua and Yasmin also co-founded She Leads Africa, a social enterprise that supports high-potential female entrepreneurs by helping them jump-start their businesses. On January 24, they successfully ran their first ever ‘Who wants to be a tech millionaire’ event, which provided workshops for young women interested in building tech-enabled businesses. Here’s a little more about their work, and we can’t wait to see what they do next!
3) Liberata Mwita, PhD student, University of Pretoria, South Africa
Growing up, Liberata wanted to become a pilot, but her family urged her to pursue a career in scientific research. Now she is studying for a PhD with SABINA at the University of Pretoria where she is part of a larger, multi-investigator project addressing complex questions about how several species of Bacillus bacteria interact with plants. This is an important question because earlier research has shown that these bacteria, which are free-living in the soil, promote plant growth under the proper circumstances. To learn more about RISE, the programme she is associated with, please click here.
4) Naadiya Moosajee, Co-founder, Women in Engineering
A native of South Africa, Naadiya describes herself as a ‘serial social entrepreneur’. With a background in engineering, Naadiya decided to set up WomEng, a social enterprise developing the next generation of women engineering leaders around the world. At present, WomEng operates in South Africa and Kenya, but aspires to expand into West Africa. We look forward to following her impact!

Connected histories of decolonisation workshop
April 17, 2014
Deadline - 13 June 2014
The recent rise of global history has prompted much reflection amongst imperial historians about the interconnections and cross-influences that existed between and amongst past empires, stretching across vast spatial and chronological frameworks. Taking as its starting point this new trend in historical research, this workshop will explore the connections, entanglements and transnational links between different twentieth century decolonisation processes. In particular, this study day seeks to bring to light the ways in which people, ideas and practices, from both the global North and South, crossed national and colonial borders, and how these connections, in turn, impacted upon on the decline of European colonialism. By going beyond a narrow, nation-state perspective, this workshop aims to break down boundaries in the history of decolonisation, challenging, for example, the divides between the British, French and Portuguese empires, but also, more widely, binaries such as colonial/ post-colonial, metropole/ periphery, coloniser/ colonised.

WORLD SOCIAL SCIENCE REPORT 2013
March 11, 2014
Social science must respond to climate change
Climate change is not an external threat to society, but a problem with both natural and social roots. Social sciences therefore need to play a bigger role in environmental research. That is the thesis of the World Social Science Report 2013, recently presented in Stockholm.
Fossil fuel emissions, deforestation, intensified agriculture, urbanization, emptying of the fisheries and deforestation – humanity has become a massive geological force. The social results are complex, and the question of climate change can no longer be separated from other social problems. This is claimed by an influential report about the status of social science that recently had its Swedish release. The interest was so great that the organizers from the Nordic Africa Institute had to change venue. In a crowded room at the Swedish government offices of Rosenbad, report director Dr.Heide Hackmann pleaded for cooperation:
– The social sciences are essential for reaching equitable and sustainable solutions. We need to cross the boundaries between the disciplines and realize that climate change is a common challenge.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN ASSOCIATION OF POLITICAL STUDIES
November 7, 2013
SEPTEMBER 2014 – PRETORIA
Theme: South Africa’s democracy at 20: Diagnosis and prognosis
In April 1994 the transition in South Africa concluded its first phase with the general elections of that year and introduced the second phase of a Government of National Unity and a Constitutional Assembly. Most observers and scholars regard that election as the beginning of democratization in South Africa. In 2014 the fourth general election will conclude the first two decades of a post-apartheid dispensation, of a far-reaching transformation period, of a national democratic revolution in the words of the ANC, and democratization. While the South African government had its own Ten Year Review in 2004 and Fifteen Year Review in 2009, 2014 provides an opportunity for political scientists to conduct their own retrospection, diagnosis and prognosis.

Teaching and Learning in Context: Why Pedagogical Reforms Fail in Sub-Saharan Africa
October 1, 2013
Since the 1990s, sub-Saharan Africa has experienced unprecedented attempts at reforming teacher and student classroom practices, with a learner-centred pedagogy regarded as an effective antidote to the prevalence of teacher-centred didactic classroom practices. Attempts at reform have been going on all over the continent. In fact, learner-centred pedagogy has been described as one of the most pervasive educational ideas in contemporary sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere. Research has revealed that the major attempts have largely failed mainly because teachers have not been able to adopt instructional innovations to technical problems. This failure is also related to lack of resources, and poor teacher training programmes which lead to poor teacher quality, among others.
