About The Organizer
China-Africa Shanghai International Network (CASIN) is a local network chapter(LNC) of the world's largest independent, interdisciplinary China-Africa research network, Chinese in Africa/Africans in China Research Network (CA/AC). The CA/AC Research Network was established in 2007, which currently hosts over 1,000 members around the world and includes experts in academia, diplomacy, media & communications, the arts & humanities, and international development. Our mission is to help move the global conversation about China-Africa forward in a critical and constructive way while developing a transnational community of scholars and practitioners who value dialogue, equity, and inclusiveness.
CASIN focuses on promoting research and knowledges about Africa and China in the local communities of Shanghai, aiming to laise between two target groups: African students and professionals who live and work in the Yangtze River Delta & Chinese researchers and professionals whose work engage with Africa or Africans. We will provide various events including: 1) Public Engagement Series that allow participants to exchange first-hand experiences; 2) African Cultural Day when a selected group of local members conduct site-seeing activities; 3) An annual creative workcompetition with China-Africa themes.
