4. African Cultures and Democratic Dialogue

Cultures and Dermocracy

Conference Themes:The relevance of women and youth empowerment for better life in Africa Women and children are always the first victims of violence and political unrest whenever it breaks out. At this moment, African women and children are still exposed to diverse violence including, domestic violence, child abuse, rape and sexual assult. Many of the victims remain silent for fear of stigmatisation because there are no tangible supports for them. Integration and participation of migrants in political activities.When it comes to participation in political activities, many African migrants have different opinions. Some have decided not to have anything to do with politics because of their claimed terrible persecution experiences from the political system. However, it is clear that there is a gap in the way politics is practiced in Africa and in Germany.How could African migrants assist governments in their response to health challenges?Ebola struck when no one was especting it to strike. It was confronted by local and intergrational health workers. Ebola victims tents were vandalized by irate youths in Liberia for lack of adequate information. What roles are African immigrants playing to make sure there is enough and quick health information for both migrants and youth in Africa?Contributions of African youth in fight against corruptionMany people inside and outside Africa beleive that fighting corruption in most African countries have not succeeded. The youths are among the victims with reports from many universities pointing fingers at lecturers to be corrupt like the politicians. Some evidence suggests that many students have to either pay money or sleep with lecturers to get degrees. What is then the future of fighting corruption in Africa if youth play along with the corruption players?What are the possible Political and economic future of migrants/refugees willing to return to Africa?Many refugees still regard Africa as a no go place when it comes to discussion about returning to Africa. Some African political leaders in their efforts have many things to point at as possible reasons why they are calling for African immigrants to return to Africa. What are the possible infrastrutures that guarantee that the returnees are not going to become starnded and end up in jails if they continue to confront corruption? Is there freedom of press in African countries?Students and Migrants cultural exchangeCultural nightMusic and dancing.......Please visit the conference website for full details of the conference theme.
