About the APSA Africa Workshops
|
 |
With the support of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the American Political Science Association (APSA) is undertaking a three-year effort to organize political science workshops in various locations in Africa. The first workshop was convened in Dakar, Senegal, from July 6-27, 2008.
These annual residential workshops will be led by a joint U.S. and African organizing team and aimed at mid-and junior-level scholars residing in Africa. They will enhance the capacities of political scientists and their resources in East and West Africa while also providing a forum for supporting their ongoing research.
Each three week workshop will bring together up to 30 scholars and cover substantive issues, methodologies, and reviews of research. A call for applications by prospective leaders for the 2009 workshop was issued in August 2008.
