Collaborative Research Groups within AEGIS: What is on Offer?

9 juillet 2015, 12:00-14:00 – Sorbonne, Amphithéâtre S_Bachelard

The Africa –Europe Group for Interdisciplinary Studies (AEGIS) has created thematic groups which have the specificity that they are open to researchers from outside the 29 AEGIS member institutes. Since 2011 the following Collaborative Research Groups (CRGs) have seen the light: Africa in the Indian Ocean, African history, African Borderlands Research Network, Drylands, Politics in Africa, Violent conflict, and Visual and Expressive Cultures. After a short introduction of the idea behind this institutional innovation (Andreas Mehler) the coordinators of those CRGs will present main rationale, topics, past and future activities of their CRG followed by Q&A.
