The fifteenth annual Africa Conference will soon be underway this Friday-Sunday, April 3-5th, at the University of Texas at Austin. This year's theme is on Development, Urban Space and Human Rights in Africa is particularly timely and has drawn papers from scholars, activists, and and policy makers from all around the world. Conference panels will examine how development, urban space, and human rights are linked with struggles to access secure and stable livelihoods; efforts to claim rights to cities and urban spaces and extend these rights beyond citizenship, ethnicity, and age; and interventions that aim to transform Africa's development trajectory in ways that account for both social and spatial relations.
Presentations and panels are open to the public. The updated conference schedule is online and also attached: http://www.utexas.edu/cola/
