The African Identity Colloquium stands as a privileged space for the spreading of knowledge. In this encounter will be organized roundtables, book and video launches, to inform about the advancements and challenges the historic and anthropological studies face in this field of research. Also, we will make an emphasis of the challenges that, as State and society, we face in matters of public policies, human rights, and fight against racism.
