Wissenschaft und Politikberatung im Kontext europäischer Afrikapolitik

Wie akademische Forschung und politische Beratung zur Verbesserung der europäischen Politik gegenüber Afrika beitragen können.

Die europäische Afrikaforschung liefert wichtige Erkenntnisse, die von großer Relevanz für Entscheidungsträger aus Politik, Wirtschaft und Medien sind. Trotz bedenklicher politischer, sozialer, wirtschaftlicher und ökologischer Herausforderungen in Afrika, die sich aufgrund der demographischen Entwicklungen langfristig auch auf Europa und den Nahen Osten auswirken werden, scheint es der europäischen Afrikaforschung schwer zu fallen, im Strom der globalen Ereignisse ausreichend Gehör zu finden.

The nexus of health and security

Early warning, crisis management, and increased resilience in a multilateral framework

COVID-19 hit the international community unprepared irrespective of the fact that a variety of global risk analysis as well as national security strategies cited pandemics as a likely risk scenario for forthcoming decades. To the contrary, countries had reduced for years their stockpiles of PPE and relied on global production chains for strategic equipment. The velocity of the virus’ spread around the globe dwarfed any attempts for mere national responses. Its impact on societies, health systems and economies underlined the need for comprehensive responses cross-cutting across health, economic, and security sectors.

„Free the Children Now!“

On November 15 and 16, 2023, a group of relatives of hostages abducted in the Gaza Strip visited Germany.

In the course of Hamas' brutal terrorist attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, over 200 people were abducted to the Gaza Strip and have been held there for over five weeks. Among the hostages are at least 34 children. 20 of them are now orphans without knowing it, as the terrorists killed their parents. Impressive initiatives have been formed in Israel to free the hostages, which have also met with a great response internationally. On November 15 and 16, 2023, a group of relatives of hostages abducted in the Gaza Strip visited Germany: Gilad Korngold, Avihai Brodutch and Batsheva Yahalomi Cohen with their daughter Yael. All of them had family members - partners, children or grandchildren - abducted to the Gaza Strip. Talks were held with the Qatari Embassy, Bundestag President Bärbel Bas, Finance Minister Christian Lindner, the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Michael Roth, and the Deputy Chairman of the CDU/CSU parliamentary group for Foreign Affairs, Johann Wadephul, as well as other members of the Bundestag and the Federal Chancellery. The delegation also took part in the commemoration of the Reichspogromnacht in the Berlin House of Representatives. A press conference was held at the Konrad Adenauer Foundation on Wednesday afternoon.

African journalists visit war torn regions of Ukraine

Fighting for Facts

On site, there was a clear sense that this is an invasion - with Russia as the aggressor: The three journalists of the KAS-funded delegation to Ukraine Dapo Olorunyomi, editor of the leading Nigerian investigative news platform Premium Times, Simon Allison, co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Continent, a newspaper widely read across the continent, and Mondli Makhanya, editor-in-chief of the South African newspaper City Press were unanimous about this.
