Join Us for a Critical Zoom Discussion: “What Has Democracy Meant for Africa”
On August 31, 2024, the TAF Narrative Focus Unit will host a highly anticipated Zoom event centered on the theme, “What Has Democracy Meant for Africa.” This event marks the culmination of a month-long research initiative aimed at dissecting the complexities of democracy across the African continent.
Event Overview:
Democracy in Africa is a topic that cannot be fully understood without acknowledging its deep historical roots, cultural nuances, and the structural challenges that have shaped governance across the continent. As we approach this discussion, our goal is to foster a comprehensive understanding of what democracy has meant, and continues to mean, for Africa.
The TAF Narrative Focus Unit has dedicated extensive research to this theme, evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of various governance models that have emerged in Africa. This event will explore how these models have impacted the continent’s political, social, and economic landscape, and how they can evolve to create more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable democracies for the future.
