Call for Papers: for 2025 Joint Symposium BETWEEN LEGACY AND LODESTONE NAMIBIA’S CONSTITUTION AMIDST REFLECTION, REFORM AND RENEWAL
- Navigating Constitutional Evolution in an Era of Transformation
- 14-15 August 2025
The School of Law at the University of Namibia (UNAM), in collaboration with the African Network of Constitutional Lawyers (ANCL) and the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung, announces a landmark international conference to be held on August 14-15, 2025, at the Casa Blanca Boutique Hotel in Windhoek, Namibia.
The timing of this Conference embodies crystalline historical significance. Empirical research has established that the life expectancy of a national constitution averages 19 years globally, extends to 32 years in Europe, yet diminishes to merely 10 years in Africa.1 That Namibia’s Constitution has not only endured but evolved through 35 years of implementation represents a rare milestone worthy of scholarly contemplation, cross-country parallels, and critical analysis.
Target Audience
This Conference will bring together:
• constitutional scholars and researchers,
• legal practitioners and judges,
• policymakers and legislators,
• civil society organizations,
• international experts in constitutional law, and
• (post)graduate students in relevant fields.
Deadline: 30 April 2025
