Cape Town! Don't miss this opportunity to hear author and poet Uhuru Phalafala and Khosi Xaba speak about a new book on the work of and influences on the inimitable late poet laureate of South Africa, Keorapetse Kgositsile. At The Book Lounge on Wednesday 24 April, 2024 at 6pm.

Join us on Thurs for another fascinating HUMA - Institute for Humanities in Africa #atayaseminars with STIAS Merian Institute for Advanced Studies in Africa Centre for African Studies Basel ZASB fellow Aidas Sanogo, chaired by Carnegie Corporation of New York #humateam Dom Somda

I cannot recommend STIAS highly enough. This is the chance of a lifetime. Great people, stunning scenery, (and - look - awesome food daily!). You get to see a country that is a microcosm of global inequalities and the struggle to address the past.

Apply. Apply. Apply. Pls RT

As someone lucky enough to be a current fellow, I can vouch what a wonderful setting STIAS provides for colleagues to further their research and writing.

In 2023, the Stellenbosh Institute for Advanced Study STIAS selected me as an Iso Lomso Fellow. Scheduled to start my first stay in Jan 2024, the trip to SA was fraught with challenges. But STIAS proved to be a family, facilitating my arrival to #Stellenbosch .

My Fellowship at STIAS has concluded. It has been a career and intellectual highlight. A sincere thank you to Director Edward Kirumira and his world-class team, and my fellow Fellows.
