Re: [wanabidii] Re: Afrometrics: "If we African cannot measure ourselves, we cannot manage ourselves".

Dear All 'Afrometricians'!

On the 5th of February, 2017 will be the 50th anniversary of the Arusha Declaration. In my research activities and presenting papers here and there in Africa (in at least 10 African countries, both Eastern, Western and Southern), I have always been asked about the Arusha Declaration.

I was in Brazil and Venezuela recently and I met scholars who are interested in the Declaration. Interestingly, these scholars are of African origins! This has moved me to organize a study group on 'Re-Reading of Arusha Declaration 50 Years After, and Its Implications for Africa's 2063 Agenda'.

Kindly indicate interest by responding to this e-mail so that I make the necessary preparations as already indicate last year.

Subject: Afrometrics: "If we African cannot measure ourselves, we cannot manage ourselves".

Dear All,

The Africa Agenda 2063 needs a new standard of measurement. Until now all sorts of Euro-centric metrics have been used to measure Africa in terms of various dimensions and aspects.

I am currently preparing a paper on what I call 'Afrometrics', the African science of self-measurement and self- management, based on Mwalimu Nyerere's philosophy of Self-Reliance. If you are interested kindly let me know so that, with sufficient number, I can organize a conference at which I will present my ideas.

You are all welcome!
