The Public Affairs Research Institute (PARI), Society, Work and Politics Institute (SWOP), Gauteng City-Region Observatory (GCRO) and the Johannesburg Crisis: Concerned Academics*, launch a seminar series to offer scholars, researchers, and postgraduate students an opportunity to share their ongoing work, either by discussing work in progress or presenting upcoming and new publications on the City of Johannesburg.
In this seminar series we welcome empirical and theoretical research on local government and governance, the energy sector and urban infrastructure, “corruption” and “anticorruption” politics, urban crisis and response to it.
The aim of this seminar series is to provide a collaborative space and an academic dialogue with scholars and researchers who are interested in governance, infrastructure, urban crisis and have conducted research on the City of Johannesburg.
For the series, we envisage a 30-minute presentation, followed by a discussant (a scholar, a public servant or a civil society representative) and then an open conversation.
