The Politics of Democracy from West Africa – A View from Research, Policy and Practice

Mon. Nov. 16, 15-16:30 (UK time) – in French

Please Register on Zoom https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_AXaKUsQmQUWDVaiWAu5AwQ

This webinar brings together scholars, practitioners, and activists from across West Africa to reflect on the contemporary politics of democracy in the region. We focus in particular on presidential third terms, popular protests, and human rights. Cutting across these themes we have a central concern with the dynamics of power, voice, and knowledge which characterise the West African political space.

Panel:
Eloïse Bertrand (University of Warwick - Chair)
Francois Patuel (FP Research Consultants)
Adou Djané Dit Fatogoma (Centre Suisse de Recherches Scientifiques)
Mathias Hounkpe (Open Society Initiative for West Africa)
