Cities and circulations: Challenging theoretical frameworks in Gulf histories and geographies November 19, 2023 at Kuwait University

The CEFREPA in collaboration with Kuwait University, Inalco, NCCAL & Sciences Po organized a workshop entitled “Cities and circulations: Challenging theoretical frameworks in Gulf histories and geographies”. A working meeting followed by scientific sessions took place in Kuwait on 19 November 2023. This workshop will be followed by three-day conference on 29-31 May 2024 in Paris.

The closed working meeting was followed by a public scientific session with relevant stakeholders to describe the themes and goals of the workshop and the broader mission of building an interdisciplinary network of Gulf scholars that breaks academic, institutional, and research silos. The outcomes of the working meeting and scientific sessions in Kuwait will inform the three-day event in Paris that brings together dedicated Gulf scholars around the six broad themes.
