The conference will be organised by the University of Ghana, Queen’s University Belfast and Nelson Mandela University, with partial funding from the National Institute for the Humanities and Social Sciences (NIHSS).
The ACUSAfrica network aims to advance Critical University Studies (CUS) across Africa in dialogue with scholarship from the Global South. Underpinning our work is the endeavour to find ‘other’ ways to study universities capable of thinking plural forms of emancipatory higher education imaginations and futures across Africa.
The 2023 conference will locate the network’s formative questions within the context of critical thought surrounding canons and registers of knowledge production in the African university. The conference seeks to set the pace for leveraging location and sources of teaching and learning to programmatically advance CUS across the continent.
