MENTORSHIPS
In addition to the 3 thematic blocks that make up the congress, attendees will also have group work spaces with the support of a tutor, in order to generate publishable content that could carry the ideas that are born in this congress to the entire population. Generating demands for which we put at your disposal all the tools to explore original formats and new ways of doing activism!
To do this, we propose you to explore, through the 6 mentorships, the following questions:
- Study of the importance of education in interculturality and recognition of popular identities for an the achievement of an inclusive coexistence and governance.
- Study of initiatives born in the continent for the vindication of Human Rights and SGDs.
- Impact of the consequences of the occidental way of life and the non-achievement of the SDGs (those related to climate change in this case) in the particular situation of African communities and states.
