These seminars are open to all faculty, fellows, and PhD students working on issues of African politics, or related development or political economy issues. The group also jointly hosts a yearly Working Group on African Political Economy, which is an all-day conference for the discussion of ongoing research in African politics and political economy by UK and EU scholars.

Seminars of the African Political Economy Group will be held on Thursdays for members of the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ community and also available online via zoom. Members will receive access details in advance of meetings.
