Horn of Africa seminar | Michaelmas term 2017

The Horn of Africa Seminar brings together students and scholars interested in examining the region from a multidisciplinary and comparative perspective. This term, the seminar will look at a variety of issues, including the security arena in Central Africa and the Horn, national service in Eritrea, the diaspora’s role in Somali media, and the early roots of the Eritrean nationalist movement.  By hosting lectures by experienced researchers alongside post-graduates, and by mixing academic and policy research, we hope to come to a shared, factually informed and politically relevant understanding of trends in the region.

Except where otherwise noted, the seminar takes place on Tuesdays at 5.00 pm in the Seminar Room, at the African Studies Centre (13 Bevington Road, OX2 6NB).
