Date: 25-27 November 2019

THEME:
GOVERNANCE OF AFRICA’S SOCIAL POLICY: SUBVERTING DEVELOPMENT AND DEMOCRACY?

DATE: 25-27 NOVEMBER 2019 
VENUE: UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA, CITY OF TSHWANE, SOUTH AFRICA

For the 2019 2nd Social Policy in Africa International Conference we invite abstracts and papers on the theme of the conference. The papers at the conference should address the dynamics of social policymaking in Africa, identify the drivers of policies and their policy preferences, address the issue of the nature of politics and the constitution of the public sphere necessary for enhanced economic transformation, human flourishing, and new forms of social compact—in other words, issues of inclusive development. Paper presenters are invited to engage with these issues and explore the different national and regional experiences of modes of governance of the African social policy space, the drivers of public policy, and explore the modes of governance and politics necessary for enhanced human wellbeing and development.

The conference also invites papers in the broad areas of social policy not directly concerned with the theme of the 2019 conference.

We invite abstracts and papers in the following thematic areas:

1.	Governance of Africa’s Social Policy
2.	Democracy and the Governance of Africa’s Social Policy
3.	Social Policymaking in Africa: actors, agency, and policy space.
4.	Poverty and Inequality in Africa.
5.	Redressing Health Inequalities: ensuring access to quality healthcare.
6.	Pension Systems Reform and Income Security in Old Age.
7.	Critical Perspectives on Social Protection.
8.	Non-Formal Social Provisioning: the African Experiences.
9.	Land and Agrarian Reform: the social policy perspectives.
