ALC Black History Month - (Re)Envisioning African Leadership - Webinar

 

Join the African Leadership Centre (ALC) Fellows, at King's College London and ALC-Nairobi, who will be hosting an online Webinar as part of the UKs Black History Month celebration titled: (Re)Envisioning African Leadership” happening this coming this Friday 28th October 2022, 2-4 pm GMT/ 4-6 pm EAT

About the Event:

The event will discuss the leadership and visions of three key African leaders from the 20th century, Prof. Wangari Mathaai, Patrice Lumumba, and Thomas Sankara. The focus of the discussion will be to gain critical insight into past leadership on the continent, so that we may learn and re-think what African leadership in the 21st century ought to look like - ideologically and pragmatically. Through an exploration of three key speeches, we will build a discussion based on each leader’s ‘vision for the future’, and consider what lessons to both (re)envision and (re)apply in the contemporary - and future - African context.

The discussion will include a screening of famous speeches from these 3 African liberation and hero leaders, followed by a panelist and Q+A discussion.

Abstract: In this seminar, experienced policy actors and peace practitioners will share their insights about prospects for peace, leadership processes, and the domestic and international factors that influence the longstanding crisis of war in Sudan. The prolongation and stalemate characterising the war in Sudan calls for renewed conversations about what is possible and the way forward, making it important to bring practitioners into academic spaces. Policymakers and practitioners who have been involved in the day-to-day peacebuilding process in Sudan share their insights, peacebuilding efforts and perspectives of the war. The war in Sudan cannot be understood in isolation due to the wider insecurities in the Horn of Africa – Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia and South Sudan. In the case of Ethiopia, despite the signing of a Cessation of Hostilities Agreement between the Ethiopian government and the Tigray Peoples’ Liberation Front in 2022, Ethiopia continues to experience armed insurgencies and instability from conflicts in the Oromia, Amhara and the Beni...
