"Africa and climate change - impacts and measures"
The "Africa Week 2024" opens its doors on September 13 and 14 at the Bürgerhaus Zähringen and invites you to an intensive cultural and scientific exchange. Under the theme "Africa and Climate Change - Impacts and Measures", this annual event brings together prominent experts, committed activists and interested citizens for a weekend-long deep dive into the pressing environmental issues facing our planet.
Top-class speakers and lively discussions
The program promises exciting insights, including from human rights lawyer Dr. Onyemaechi Franklyne Ogbunwezeh from Frankfurt, who will speak on the topic of "Where does Africa stand in the discourse on climate change and climate justice".
Workshops, music and culinary delights
But it's not just lectures that are on the program. Interactive workshops, an impressive photo exhibition on environmental pollution in Lagos by Gabriel Goller and the documentary film "Akwanteng - A Ghanaian village dies of cocoa" offer further opportunities to engage intensively with the topics.
