Seminar Room, Corpus Christi College
Africa Forum is a series of informal seminars, convened to give students an easy, low-commitment, introduction to issues of Development in Africa. The forums are led by masters students, in an atmosphere of eager enquiry and Divine chocolate, to sharpen our young minds. This week’s discussion:
Development Theory and NGOs in Africa
The event begins with an introduction to development theory and issues, followed by a short presentation on fresh graduate research on African NGO relations with Western counter-parts, before we open up the floor to questions, discussion and chat, really.
Places are limited, so to book your place for the first forum, or just receive further information, follow this link - http://www.oxfordhub.org/u8/
The speaker, Kofi Hope, is completing a masters in African Studies. His thesis drew upon primary research on an African NGO, Women for Change, and considers their work in Zambia and how government policy and NGO-donor relations shapes their work.
