The objective of this 5-day workshop is to bring scholars from distinct cultures of inquiry together to share the specific ways in which people in different times and places developed mathematics to model eclipse phenomena, with a chronological focus on the period 1650-1922, and to trace the circulation and development of these technical insights and practices globally. The workshop will include academic papers from a range of both established and early-career researchers alongside workshops designed to connect participants with eclipse-related methods and physical processes of mathematical knowledge-making, as well as to consider different forms of research output related to eclipse research and how this changed over the period under investigation and continues to develop. The aim is to bring together a cross-cultural cohort of scholars with the vision of generating a broader, coherent sense of shared ownership of the mathematical tradition of eclipse reckoning.

L’INTÉGRATION OUEST-AFRICAINE : AJUSTEMENTS OU REMISE EN CAUSE ? L’intégration des États ouest-africaine enregistre indiscutablement de véritables retombées dans plusieurs domaines. Ces satisfactions ne cachent pas pour autant de graves crises nées des mésententes et divergences entre États membres. Au sein de la CEDEAO, le point culminant des divergences survint avec l’annonce du retrait du Mali, du Burkina Faso et du Niger le 28 janvier 2024. Cette sortie de ces pays de la Communauté provoqua non seulement des répercussions dépassant largement les frontières politiques, mais fit planer de sombres jours sur libre circulation des personnes, de leurs biens et le développement socioéconomique sous-régional. Quels sont les fondements de cette décision de quitter la CEDEAO ? S'inscrit-elle dans la logique de rejets des instruments de gestion des crises ? Ne s’agit-il pas plutôt d’aspirations à des réajustements face aux nouveaux enjeux sécuritaires ? À quel type d’intégration les ouest-africains aspirent ardemment-ils ?

Environmental history is a powerful form of storytelling. Under the ‘Climate Histories’ theme we ask, how might we rethink the written and material records of social adaptabilities and transformations to understand better what it means to live through an era of rapid climate change? As catastrophic events attest to the undeniable effects of climate change, we are reminded of the historical depth of living with climate variability. The conference theme, Climate Histories, seeks to bridge historical research on climate variability with current lived experiences, fostering deeper discourse and offering new perspectives on contemporary climate change.
