The international research centre IGK Work and Human Life Cycle in Global History (Humboldt-Universitdt zu Berlin) and the University Cheikh Anta Diop Dakar, Senegal will hold a Summer Academy entitled Work in Post-Slavery Societies: Gender and Generations. The event will take place from 26 January to 1 February 2015 in Dakar.
The Summer Academy will focus on the connections between work and human life course in various regional contexts and from a historical angle. In this context, young researchers from European as well as non-European regions will not only be offered a forum to present their work. In addition to that, they will be given the opportunity to discuss key questions that this specific field entails with regards to content and method with senior scholars.
