The Public Affairs Research Institute (PARI), Society, Work and Politics Institute (SWOP), Gauteng City-Region Observatory (GCRO) and the Johannesburg Crisis: Concerned Academics, launch a seminar series to offer scholars, researchers, and postgraduate students an opportunity to share their ongoing work, either by discussing work in progress or presenting upcoming and new publications on the City of Johannesburg.
The seminar series provides a collaborative space and dialogue to scholars, researchers, activists and policy makers, to share their ongoing work on the City of Johannesburg.
This is an itinerant series and the details of each seminar will be published one week prior.
The first seminar takes place on 26 September with two presentations: The failure of a Coalition Across Difference:A Case Study of the Metropolitan City of Johannesburg by Moeketsi Koahela and The viability of legal interventions in addressing municipal dysfunction and an exploration of the
burgeoning judicial role: A focus on the City of Johannesburg Claire Franklyn.
Sarah Meny-Gibert will act as discussant for both presentations.
Thursday, 26 September, 1–3pm, at PARI offices and online.
