Young Scholars' Forum
Organised in connection with the main conference event, “African Perspectives on Global Transformations,” this gathering is designed specifically for PhD candidates and early-career researchers to connect, reflect, and engage in a collaborative and supportive environment. Under the theme “Creative Encounters: Rethinking Research in Global Spheres,” the program invites participants to explore how creative approaches can enrich research and knowledge production. Activities will include hands-on creative exercises such as storytelling, painting, mapping, and collage.
The program will conclude with a guest lecture by Dr. Henri Michel Yéré, followed by an apéro/dinner. We are particularly mindful of accessibility and aim to support participation across different contexts.
