Bavaria-Africa News

In recent years, African-Bavarian research and innovation collaborations have been increasingly promoted. How equal are these partnerships? How can international cooperation projects be successfully realised together? The Scientific Coordination Office Bavaria-Africa (WKS) invites you to the Cooperation Lounge Africa - Bavaria in Munich to discuss precisely these questions and to connect with interested stakeholders.

In cooperation with the "Pan-African Institute of Research and Innovation" (PIRI), the Scientific Coordination Office Bavaria-Africa is organising an online workshop on 4 June 2024 on academic freedom in the context of international research projects with African and European participation. Interested parties from universities, universities of applied sciences, research institutions, politics and civil society organisations are invited to discuss the challenges of academic freedom in international cooperations.
