Seminario Internacional: "¿Ha llegado el momento de África?"
The IPS–Inter Press Service news agency and the Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AECID, Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation) have organised this seminar which aims to stimulate the debate about the ways to reinforce the possible communication initiatives about African topics, based on questioning whether it´s truly time for Africa, and in light of the assessment of the Millennium Development Goals from the latest United Nations General Assembly.
The General Director of Casa África, Mr. Ricardo Martínez, will present in the first panel of this seminar "Africa´s Leadership. Case studies from various sectors." It will make reference to organisations, sectors or initiatives that make up examples of leadership in Africa, and that normally receive very little space from the news media, who tend to cover only certain aspects or types of news related to the continent, often leaving out the significant achievements of the neighbouring continent. The presentation will be followed by a session for comments, questions, and a brief debate with the other panel members and the audience.
The seminar will take place on Thursday, November 25th at the AECID Amphitheatre Hall. Avda. Reyes Católicos, 4 MADRID. Metro: Moncloa or Islas.
Attendance is limited, and so participants must complete and send the registration form to momentodeafrica@ips.org before November 20th.
