Please join us for a special Africa Discussion Group as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Arta Conference, conceived and hosted by the Government of Djibouti, which reconstituted the Somalia we know today and took its seat at the September 2000 UNGA. We will be joined by Dr. Babafemi A. Badejo, who served for more than 10 years as Deputy Special Representative of the UN Secretary General in peace support operations in Somalia and several other posts. His latest book is Somalia Just Before Al-Shabaab: Why Peace Was Elusive.
If you have an interest in Africa or want to learn more, join DACOR members at the monthly Africa Discussion Group. Discussions are organized around theme, country, region or on a selected speaker’s interests.
The DACOR cash bar opens at 12 noon and the group moves to a reserved table at Members' Lunch at 12:30 pm. Attendees have the option of participating in the Members' Lunch for $35, or joining the discussion group without eating (no charge). Registrations are required for all participants.
Members' Lunch for $35 includes a biscuit/bread, two courses, and a cup of coffee/tea. Wine and other beverages may be purchased at the bar or at the table.
