Welcome to the website of APAD, the Euro-African Association for the Anthropology of Social Change and Development. APAD is a network promoting dialogue between African and European researchers in the social sciences as well as with developments agents. Initially devoted to the empirical studies of interactions brought about by development, APAD’s approach has evolved towards research regarding social change on the African continent in its broadest sense.

Professeur Bréhima Kassibo
C'est
avec tristesse et douleur que nous venons apprendre le décès de
notre ami et collègue, Professeur Bréhima Kassibo, Directeur de
recherches de l'Institut des sciences humaines, Bamako, Mali.
Prof.
Kassibo a beaucoup contribué à l'APAD avec engagement et esprit
critique. Sous sa direction a été publié le numéro thématique du
Bulletin de l'APAD 14 "La décentralisation au Mali: état des
lieux" dans lequel des chercheurs posent des questions
pertinentes sur le devenir de cette refondation institutionnelle de
la société malienne. Prof. Kassibo était aussi chercheur senior au
centre de recherche Point Sud à Bamako.
Au nom de l'APAD et
en mon nom propre je présente à la famille et aux amis et collègues
de Bréhima Kassibo les condoléances les plus attristées.
Paix à
son âme!
Sten Hagberg
Président de l'APAD
Professor
Bréhima Kassibo
It is with sadness and pain that we have been
informed about the loss of our colleague and friend Bréhima Kassibo,
Research Directeur at the Institute of Human Sciences, Bamako,
Mali.
Prof. Kassibo contributed substantially to APAD with
commitment and critical spirit. Among other things he edited the
thematic issue of the APAD Bulletin 14 "La décentralisation au
Mali: état des lieux" in which researchers ask pertinent questions
on this institutional refoundation of Malian society. Prof. Kassibo
was also a senior research fellow at the Research Centre Point Sud in
Bamako.
On behalf of APAD and myself I present our condolences
to Bréhima Kassibo?s family, friends and colleagues.
May he rest
in peace!
Sten Hagberg
APAD President
