CONFERENCE ON AFRICAN STUDIES: CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

KISII UNIVERSITY, KENYA
JULY 15 ‐ 20, 2019

The emerging Center for African Studies and Research is pleased to announce the call for participation at its international Conference on African Studies. It will be held in Kisii, Kenya July 15-20, 2019.

CONFERENCE THEME

Recovering, digitizing and practicalizing Africa’s Indigenous Knowledge.


Workshop and practical training:
During the conference, we would like to offer training on different techniques and areas of scholarship in the social-sciences. We encourage workshops and trainings on extant innovative practices in specific disciplines. To this effect, we welcome workshops and hands-on training on different programs or software that would equip participants to conduct research in the three areas of the conference’s foci. For example:
  • Training in collecting oral data, in the use of GIS, and archival processes
  • Training in language documentation, specifically, (how to elicit the sounds of a language, lexicology, translation, grammar and dictionary)
  • How to obtain gestures and analyze gestures
  • How to code different data and analyze large scale data
  • Data mining and information processing
These are suggestions, participants are encouraged to propose discipline specific training and workshop to equip researchers with latest information.
