Olivier de Schutter and Mamadou Cissoko
A CONFERENCE ON THE THEME: The impact of current agricultural policies on the life standard and conditions for development
Olivier De Schutter is a legal academic and human rights expert. A Harvard graduate now resident in Belgium, he was appointed UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food by the Human Rights Council in March 2008. He still teaches international human rights law, European Union law and legal theory at the Université catholique de Louvain in Belgium, as well as at the College of Europe (source wikipedia).
In his unusual direct way of speaking, this outstanding personality and great contributor to Senegalese civil society gives his point of view on the issues of rural development and traces back the different stages of the “Senegalese Movement of the Peasants” since its beginning. He advocates democracy and consolidation of the economic integration within West-Africa.
Wednesday 2th May – 19h in Espace Senghor

The debate was lively in Espace Senghor during La Mort de Danton, a film by Alice Diop thanks to the participation of Steve Tientcheu, main character of the film, Bernard de Vos, general delegate for the Children’s Rights and Marie Arena, Belgian senator.
The last screenings of the festival will be held at the Potemkine Bar, a wonderful place next to “Porte de Hal” where the public will be able to gather and share the energy created during the last three weeks in a more informal way.
Another look on Ji Dan and her film “When the bough breaks” that won the Objectif d’or of this year festival.
