CCC Keynote Lecture: African Collections Futures Report Launch

This event is open to all.

The African Collections Futures project set out seeks to develop a better sense of where Africa-related objects and materials are present across the University of Cambridge, the forms of engagements researchers, African research and heritage institutions, and African diaspora and communities of origin have with these objects, and what more can be done.

The report is an introduction to African collections at Cambridge, and an invitation to pursue further research, collaboration, and community engagement.

The lecture will be 6-7pm, followed by a drinks reception until 8pm.

Keynote Speaker:

Dr. Njabulo Chipangura, Curator of Living Cultures, Manchester Museum

Report introduced by:

Dr Eva Namusoke, author of the report, Senior Curator, African Collections Futures, The Fitzwilliam Museum

Professor Neal Spencer, Deputy Director (Collections & Research), The Fitzwilliam Museum

Closing remarks by:

Professor Kamil Munir, Pro-Vice Chancellor for Research, University of Cambridge
