11th Annual Conference on Genocide and Human Rights in Africa and the Diaspora
Save the date! The Center for Genocide and Human Rights Research in Africa and the Diaspora (GHRAD) will host its 11th annual conference at NEIU from March 5 (opening ceremony) through March 7, 2025. While this conference will cover many genocide-related issues, a special focus will be on the post-genocide processes of communal regeneration and social transformation.
This year's keynote speaker will be Professor Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela from Stellenbosch University, the recipient of the 2024 Templeton Prize.
