The Action in Africa study break is an event that aims to bring together groups and individuals interested and involved in African issues. People can share their experiences, and people interested in a particular region or kind of work can get information from others. The idea is to get people interested in similar issues connected, and to share knowledge about working in Africa, in particular countries or on particular issues. A fun, informal gathering, with food!! Contact angela.omiyi at yale.edu<mailto:angela.omiyi at yale.edu> for more information.
