Global Conversations on the Movement for Reparations
The African Union proclaimed this year to be the year of “Justice for Africans and People of African Descent through Reparations,” to promote engagement on reparations. The organisation has spearheaded several programmes and conversations as efforts towards this. To take stock of the efforts and bring the conversation to Oxford, a cross-cultural committee of African scholars and scholars of African descent have partnered with the African Foundation for Development (AFFORD) to curate a global conversation on the burgeoning reparations movement.
This programme will bring together a global panel, inclusive of representatives from CARICOM, the UN Permanent Forum for People of African Descent, the Atlantic Institute, and the All Party Group for Afrikan Reparation, to discuss the contemporary calls and proposals for reparations. A small drinks reception will be held following the panel discussion.
This event is sponsored by the Atlantic Institute, the Rhodes Trust, the Black Association of Rhodes Scholars, the Rhodes Scholar Africa Forum, and the Oxford Africa Society (AfriSoc)
