Global South

The W.E.B. Du Bois Southern Center for Studies in Public Policy addresses pressing issues of social justice, governance, conflict and post-war recovery, and self-defined, sustainable development in the Global South, with a central focus on continental African and African-descended states and communities. The Du Bois Policy Center pursues this Global South agenda through research, Pan-Africa and South-South policy partnerships, student exchanges, resource generation and sharing, and liberatory public policy evaluation, advocacy, design, and commentary. This agenda is realized through various Du Bois Policy Center activities and programs, including publications, workshops, meetings, seminars, conferences, and collaborations.
