The Spring semester is here, and the APERO Brown Bag Lecture will soon begin. We would like to extend an invitation to you to give a lecture this semester. Presenters can be professors, graduate students, or anyone doing work related to Africa. Topics can be connected to ongoing projects, completed research, innovative ideas, or exciting work in any area that relates to Africa.

The Apero lecture series continues to grow and fulfill the objective of focusing the attention of the University and the Athens community on topics of significant current or historical interest to Africa.

The lecture is attended by the AFST students, as well as other UGA students, faculty, and staff interested in learning more about Africa. The lecture is held biweekly on Wednesdays from 12.40 p.m. to 1.30 p.m. in Peabody Hall, room 105. Speakers who are interested in giving a presentation should be aware that they can do so virtually or in person.
