  The conference "Women, sport and culture" Sfax (Tunisia) 2014, offers an opportunity to insist on the double movement which is outlined, working upstream to create a privileged space for exchange and dialogue while recognizing downstream the plurality of cultures of South and North which is translated inevitably by different conceptions of the status of the feminine body. Two types of problems can be met:

  - Common problems shared by all women during their involvement in sport.

  Slavery in Africa: Past, legacies and Present

  International Conference, Nairobi, Kenya October 27, 28 & 29 2014

  In Africa, the effects of slavery and slave trade are still alive and there is no doubt in their historical importance and weight in the relationships between the various components of African societies in general, and in particular, the process of building nation-states. Legacies of Slavery are numerous, diverse, sometimes painful and extremely sensitive. Important efforts have been made in African research, primarily in the study of the Atlantic slave trade, but also to some degree, the Indian Ocean islands shaped by plantation labour. However, while the voices of memory are strong in countries such as Senegal and Benin, they are just emerging in East Africa today. The question of slavery in history, its legacies and presence in African societies are at the heart of this conference which is expected to contribute to its entry into the domain of recent public debates.
