African Women in Cinema, Visual Media

and Screen Culture

Since its creation, the African Women in Cinema Blog has followed numerous conferences, panels, symposia and colloquia related to African women in cinema, visual media and screen culture, posting the proceedings in detail or summarized. Similarly, the Centre for the Study and Research of African Women in Cinema publishes an updated listing which chronicles these events. In addition, information detailing declarations, statements and manifestos are included. 

Both the Blog and Centre include updates as well as newly discovered events that may date back to other periods.

The Centre's page, listing events in descending order dating to 1984, is accessible at the following link: https://www.africanwomenincinema.org/AFWC/Proceedings.html

Those published on the Blog since 2011 are below, also in descending order.

This post will be updated to reflect new information.
