EADI Virtual Dialogue Series
We came to know that the category "webinar" is a registered trademark under German law. This is why we have decided to call our online-seminar series "Virtual Dialogue Series"
Upcoming Virtual Dialogues
Modeling a Pandemic (COVID-19) Management Strategy for Urban Slums Using Social Geometry Framework, 19 January, 11.00 CET
With Francis Onditi PhD, Head of the School of International Relations and Diplomacy, Riara University, Kenya. Our central claim is that the containment strategy that was instituted to control spread of COVID-19 failed to recognize the socio-cultural and livelihood complexities of the urban slum residents. This unmitigated strategy predisposed the residents to risks of heightened transmission of the pandemic. Drawing on social geometry approach in the analysis of human relations, we reveal some insights offered by our experiences in theorizing about public health intervention (PHI) and in doing so develop an alternative analytical framework (‘social pendulum’) to support the development of a PHI strategy that is compatible with the swing-like lifestyle of residents in the informal settlements.
Consistent Injustice Within Environment-Development Intervention in Sub-Saharan Africa and Possible Ways Forward, 11 February, 11.00 CET
With Susannah Sallu, Sustainability Research Institute, University of Leeds. Susannah will discuss possible ways forward to (re)negotiate rural livelihood and landscape resilience, bring together and reflect on her recent portfolio of case study research on climate change, conservation and agricultural development intervention, largely conducted in Tanzania.
