We are pleased to announce that the theme of the 2026 SMAIAS-ASN Summer School will be “Rejuvenating Pan-Africanism”.
Kindly find the Call for Papers with Concept Note (EN, FR, PT, ES) at the end of this post.
Interested researchers and activists are invited to submit paper proposals (abstracts) of up to 200 words, in English, no later than 1 September 2025. Proposals should be submitted via the online form here: bit.ly/3IgRE65. Women are especially encouraged to participate.
The selection of proposals will be made public by 10 September 2025 via our social media. The results will not be communicated individually. Please consult our social media.
Authors of selected proposals will be invited to send their draft papers by 1 December 2025. Kindly note that authors of selected proposals who do not send their papers by this date will not be included in the final programme.
The Summer School will be held in hybrid (physical and virtual) format in the week of 2–6 February 2026, at the University of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Funding for physical participation is limited. Participants who wish to join physically in Dar es Salaam are encouraged to access own institutional funding.
Papers presented at the Summer School may eventually be selected for publication in Agrarian South: Journal of Political Economy, subject to normal peer review process.
