Title: Creativity of the African Farmers: Living strategy of Angolan immigrants living in Western Province, Zambia
Presenter: Rumiko Murao (Tokyo University of Foreign Studies)

Abstract

Angolan immigrants in farm village of Western Province, Zambia are voluntary refugees who have left their country because of a civil war. After their immigrations from Angola, their lives, especially land uses, are regulated in the context of political and economic change at national and global level. In this presentation, I examine characteristics to be seen in the African farmers under the political and economic change by focusing on creativities that can be seen in the living strategies of the Angolan immigrants.
