International Faculty Partnership Seminar, Ghana 2018 ( June 9-16, 2018)
The International Faculty Partnership Seminars sponsored by the California State University through the Academic Council on International Programs (ACIP) are designed to provide international experiences for faculty of diverse disciplines from all CSU campuses. In order to increase opportunities for faculty, IP is launching a series of seminars in collaboration with partners abroad. Planning is already underway for seminars in Paris, France in 2019 and Tübingen, Germany in 2020. The seminar themes are broadly based and comparative in nature.
In addition to interacting with colleagues about the conference themes, participants will learn more about CSU International Programs and the experiences of students who participate. By visiting the university, one of the goals of the seminar is to acquaint CSU faculty with the opportunities available to their students.
The theme for this year’s seminar is “Ghana Calls.” In 1957 Ghana declared independence from the United Kingdom and Dr. Kwame Nkrumah became its first Prime Minister. This seminar will examine the evolution of Africa and Ghana in the years since independence. To frame our discussions the seminar will be structured along five tracks. We will be asking CSU participants to choose between a “presenter” role or a “participant” role as a part of the application. All sessions will include presenters from both the CSU and the University of Ghana in order to grow opportunities for the cross-fertilization of knowledge and create synergies between our institutions.
The broad theme will be comprised of the following five tracks:
Through participation in an International Faculty Partnership Seminar, CSU faculty will:

Selection of CSU participants will be the responsibility of the Faculty Affairs Committee of the ACIP. Approximately 20 faculty members will be selected to participate. The Committee will seek a broad distribution of disciplines and participation from across campuses.
