Amharic Intensive Summer Program participants are expected to participate in this gratis workshop. The Summer program will be directed by Prof. Grover Hudson, Faculty, Department of Linguistics and Languages, Michigan State University. This workshop aims to enhance social science, natural science, and humanities undergraduate courses that teach about the African environment, by encouraging the use of film and video images that are accurate representations of Africans and Africa and that challenge the conventional concept of the African environment.
Registration is free, however there is a small fee to cover materials, breaks and an African meal.
A wide variety of themes will be covered including, the restructuring of health care organizations, delivery systems and financing, the economic and social impacts of AIDS, the contributions and role of traditional health providers and many related topics. The Center is also interested in papers and panels that reflect ongoing research on law and colonization in Africa, African humanities, South Africa in transition, democratization and human rights, natural resources and political economy as well as gender. The program consists of intensive Modern Standard Arabic study, cultural diversity exploration through home stays, lectures on Morocco and related North African issues and visits to historical and cultural attractions.
