F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Global Social Development Congress in Istanbul

Is anyone from this board attending the Global Social Development Congress in Istanbul next week, or based in Istanbul? I'll be there talking about my work in supporting conflict-affected community organizers and post-secondary learners, but would love to meet anyone working on gender and development, particularly in West Africa, the Middle East, or Latin America. (If are based in Istanbul and would like to attend, I might be able to get you a free or heavily discounted ticket - registration is crazy expensive.)
