Brian ---------- Forwarded message ---------- *** DEADLINE EXTENDED to FEBRUARY 1st *** Subject: RE: CFP on Heritage, Development, & Digital Technologies in sub-Saharan Africa Dear Friends & Colleagues, As you know, recent scholarship in development studies has highlighted the importance of new digital technologies as tools for furthering social justice, and has revealed continued economic and educational inequalities. How are information communication technologies (ITCs) being used, challenged, implemented, incorporated in grassroots and institutional heritage development in sub-Saharan Africa? We are thinking of this topic rather broadly to challenge what is meant by heritage and development and how new technologies contribute to new configurations and opportunities. How do new technologies expand definitions of research, policy, advocacy, activism, archiving, education, museums, community. Areas may include: blogging; archiving & publishing; music, film, arts & culture; networking; digital storytelling; and so on. I've attached the CFP to this message. I hope you will also consider forwarding it to anyone you think may be interested in this topic. We have extended the original deadline for proposals from January 15th to Feb 1st. All the best, Marla Jaksch, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Women's & Gender Studies The College of New Jersey Networked Fellow, Digital Humanities Initiative (DHi@Hamilton College)
