WORKSHOP: Scholarship in Action - Advancing Socially Engaged Research in Africa

Banner events english

24 April 2025, 14:00 - 15:30 | Johannesburg

Workshop

MOJA Adult Education Africa invites you to participate in an interactive workshop on Socially Engaged Scholarship. This workshop will bring together scholars exploring and committed to bridging the gap between academia and civil society by centering knowledge production in real-world struggles, relationships, and transformative action.

Socially engaged scholarship challenges the confines of theoretical abstraction and calls for meaningful praxis—one that fosters mutual respect, collaboration, and direct community impact. In this workshop we will explore in regional working groups how to develop localized strategies for advancing engaged scholarship.

JOIN US at this workshop. We look forward to your contributions as we chart a collective path for engaged scholarship that places community at its centre.

DATE: 24 April 2024

DATE: 14:00 – 15:30 (SAST) / 15:00 - 16:30 (EAT)

Establishing literate environments and continuous learning programs is therefore essential for consolidating the skills acquired by newly literate individuals. This webinar will highlight concrete experiences from Mali and Côte d'Ivoire regarding strategies, programs, and learning spaces that promote the consolidation of literacy and adult education skills.
