    The exploration and evaluation of the means of coproduction of knowledge in the tangible transformation of cities of the South

    15th N-AERUS conference: effective change?

    La 15ème conférence N-Aerus se propose comme plateforme pour explorer et évaluer les moyens de coproduction de savoir pour des transformations tangibles dans les villes du Sud; pour comprendre le monde de manière collaborative et, à la fois, le changer de manière réflexive. Il est donc urgent de se pencher sur les voies par lesquelles populations, universités, bailleurs de fonds et autres acteurs clé du développement peuvent retrouver leur rôle de co-producteurs de savoirs capables de déclencher le changement dans le Sud urbain globalisé. Nous organiserons trois tables rondes thématiques (introduites par la présentation de contributions individuelles) afin de refaçonner les agendas académique, institutionnel et sociétal en matière de définition de cadres innovants pour la co-production de savoirs (1 – Mouvements sociaux, justice sociale ; 2 - Approches participatives, orientées processus et basées sur la demande : le rôle de la coopération au développement ; 3 - Lobbying and the role of academia).

    Nutrition and Food Production in the Congo Basin

    Nutrition is a universal human right. Population growth and a higher demand for food, together with a changing nutrition pattern, will put the environment, at global level, under a growing pressure in the coming decennia. This pressure will be very strong on regions with a high biodiversity due to the ever growing demand on arable land and an increasing demand for animal protein, which will negatively influence the global ecosystem, the global climate and the biodiversity. The aim of the conference is to highlight a number of topics dealing with nutrition, the demand for food and food production – past and future.

    Informality, International Trade and Customs

    The objective of this conference is two-fold: to promote applied research on the relationships between States, customs administrations and local importers of the so-called developing and emerging countries and to deepen the analysis of informality as a reality in international trade in a multi / inter disciplinary perspective (social anthropology, law, economics, history, political science, and sociology). Professor Keith Hart will deliver a keynote address.
