  Migration via the sea or desert: recourse to religious figures in the migratory dynamics of Africa

  This conference intends broadly speaking, to open a scientific dialogue to discuss the place of the religious in the migratory dynamics. The conference anchoring point is the illegal migration from Africa towards Europe and Middle East. But proposals dealing with the link between religious and all other forms of human mobility within the African continental space or from it to other destinations could be examined according to their relevance. Four areas of reflection, non-exclusive, are suggested to shape the discussions: 1) Faith, beliefs and religious practices in the development / maturation of the migration project; 2) Socioeconomic uses and magico-religious experience on migration paths; 3) Religion and migratory networks; 4) Religious treatment of the migration issue.

  Bouake, history and evolutions to an African town

  Ce colloque, qui privilégie les réflexions plurielles et les approches innovantes, reconstitue et analyse les trajectoires de la ville de Bouaké. Ce faisant, il s’intéresse à cette grande métropole du centre de la Côte d’Ivoire de sa fondation en 1898 à nos jours afin de cerner, au-delà de l’examen des évolutions et des permanences, tout ce qui fait sens et est susceptible de contribuer à la renaissance de Bouaké.
