Webinar 1: Beyond South Africa — Xenophobia, African Migration and the Future of Pan-Africanism

Tue Sep 01 2026

The recurring attacks on African migrants in South Africa have reignited debates on xenophobia and African solidarity. This webinar examines whether South Africa is being unfairly singled out, explores the continent-wide rise of anti-migrant nationalism, and assesses the implications for Pan-Africanism, regional integration, and the African Union's free movement agenda.

Guiding questions:

• Is xenophobia becoming a continental phenomenon rather than a uniquely South African problem?
• Is South Africa being scapegoated while similar experiences elsewhere are overlooked?
• What explains the resurgence of anti-migrant nationalism across Africa?
• How can the African Union revive the ideals of Pan-Africanism and free movement?
