The utopia of globalised culture and the reality of local communication practices
Communication and digital technology in Francophone sub-Saharan Africa
The imaginary world surrounding digital communication seems to impose a vision that crushes cultural diversity. The Symposium aims to jointly explore the heterogeneity of uses, productions and issues raised by the meeting of globalised technology that is often Western-centred, with various cultures. The first edition will focus on Francophone sub-Saharan Africa, a multicultural territory where contemporary geopolitical contexts pose particularly vital issues for communications research. These issues are of interest mainly to the information and communication sciences community, but the contributions of researchers from various cultural and disciplinary horizons will make it possible to tackle this very broad problem of communication, especially digital, in sensitive areas, according to different complementary approaches.

Mobile technologies, innovation and development
Ce colloque a pour objectif de faire le point sur le développement des technologies de l’information et leurs usages dans le cadre de l’innovation et du développement, de montrer des exemples de pratiques technologiques émergentes, de développer une réflexion théorique et méthodologique adaptée aux pays en voie de développement ou en émergence. Il s’agit, en d’autres termes, de soulever, à travers de récents travaux et expériences particulières, des questions sur les aspects scientifiques, éthiques et civiques liées à l’usage des technologies de l'information et de la communication pour le développement. Le format proposé est celui d’un colloque itinérant sur quatre sites différents.
