During the Congress we are going to address issues related to the historical, political, economic, cultural and social aspects of the African continent and its development. The scope of the conference covers large geographical and thematic area, from Tunisia to South Africa, including Africans in the diaspora. The Congress will be interdisciplinary in nature. Scholars representing (but not limited to) the following fields, are encouraged to submit their applications: cultural and religious sciences, ethnology and cultural anthropology, history, linguistics, literary studies, art sciences, economics and finance, socio-economic geography, security sciences, social communication and media sciences, political and administrative sciences, legal studies, sociology, philosophy and international relations. The combination of multiple perspectives allows a holistic view of the phenomena taking place on the African continent, along with its complexity and diversity.
