About the project
This project seeks to explore the historical and cultural connections between Europe and Africa. In this project we will focus on Sub-Saharan Africa, since it is very culturally and historicallydistinct from the Arab Northern Africa. The topics of the project will include: 1. Slavery - the role of Europeans in development of Transatlantic slave trade and the prohibition of slavery around the world; 2. Why is Africa so poor? - positive and negative contributions Europeans have made to development of African countries and what are the best policies for Europe to promote development of African countries; 3. Human rights - what is the role of Europe in protecting human rights in Africa and around the world?; 4. Migrations - causes of mass migration from the South to the North and its impact on the South and North.
