Conference on Innovation, transformation and sustainable futures in Africa - Dakar, Senegal – June 1-3, 2016

Welcome to the joint conference of the American Anthropological Association and African Studies Association. This event, which will take place at the Novotel Dakar from June 1-4, 2016 will present an interdisciplinary occasion to focus research attention on important transformations as they relate to Africa’s future. Hosted in Dakar by the Council for the Development of Social Science Research in Africa (CODESRIA) and the West African Research Center (WARC), the conference will itself model innovation and creativity in its presentation formats and its location. Dakar, now a city of more than two million people, exemplifies these dynamic changes— developing into a modern, global city while maintaining its rich cultural roots and identity.
