The University of Maryland Institute for International Programs invites all members of the College Park community to a day-long colloquium, "Innovation and Africa," Friday May 7, 2010. The colloquium will bring members of the UM campus community who are active in and/or concerned with the countries and regions of Subsaharan Africa together with members of the Africa-interested community in the greater DC area--from the diplomatic community, federal agencies, international organizations--to explore current conditions, priorities, and possibilities.

This event is also open to the larger DC community, so please share this announcement with area colleagues and institutions who may find it of interest.

Lunch will be provided to all participants who register (FREE OF CHARGE) BY THURSDAY, APRIL 22 (campus catering requires considerable lead time...).
