River Walk: The Saar’s 100-Million-Year History
As part of the visit to the Wallerfangen oxbow and its wider surroundings, the excursion examines, on the one hand, the human-induced changes to the course of the Saar over the past 50 years and, on the other, the influence of human-induced changes within the river’s catchment area.

Saarland UniversityRéparations, renouveau du panafricanisme et montée en puissance du sentiment anti-occident en Afrique contemporaine
In many African countries, a significant rise in West-critical attitudes can be observed, particularly directed against France. The African diaspora plays a central role in this dynamic. CURE Fellow François Wassouni shows how representatives of Neo-Pan-Africanism engage with topics such as reparations, the transatlantic slave trade, colonialism, and neocolonialism in order to legitimise a radical break with the West.
