All the best, pat Dr Patricia Noxolo, Senior Lecturer in Human Geography School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham B15 2TT UK ________________________________ From: Laura Martin (School of History and Cultures) Sent: 17 May 2019 14:18 To: Patricia Noxolo (Geography) Subject: Event on Law, Custom and urban Property in Africa, 3-4 June Dear Patricia, I hope this message finds you well. My name is Laura Martin and I am a research fellow in African Studies. I just wanted to draw your attention to the annual Cadbury Conference being held on 3 and 4 June in the Department of African Studies and Anthropology (please see the invitation/description attached) that I have been helping to organize. Focusing on law, custom and urban land/property in Africa, we have invited lawyers, access to justice activists and urban experts from a range of African countries. The workshop aims to explore synergies between academic research and experience on the ground and discuss policy implications. At a time when institutions such as the World Bank are emphasising the importance of land titling, we would like to examine the complexities of custom and property in urban settings, as opposed to the rural areas where these themes tend to be investigated. In addition to a keynote lecture by Professor Ambreena Manji, which will draw together key strands by focusing on care and property in East Africa, the event will be organized into a series of roundtable and panel discussions, bringing together academic research and practitioner expertise from across the continent. We will concentrate the discussions especially relevant to development practitioners on 3 June, along with the keynote. Based on your research interests, we thought the conference might be of interest. Please do also feel free to pass on this email to other people (both at Birmingham and elsewhere) who you think might be interested. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions at all, or if you would like to participate. Feel free to contact either the main organizer, Max Bolt ([log in to unmask]), or myself. All the Best, Dr Laura S.
