Dit is ‘n Noord-Kaap ding (It is a Northern Cape thing) colloquium was founded in 2021 by Dr Lorato Mokwena, an academic from the University of the Western Cape.
It is a unique multidimensional event that brings together stakeholders from various spheres whose work focusses on Northern Cape. Examples of these stakeholders include academics, language and cultural activists, NPOs and performing artists.
The colloquium is a collaboration between the University of the Western Cape (UWC) and Sol Plaatje University (SPU) and this year’s presentations focus on M.O.R.E - Memorialisation, Opportunities, Resistance and Existence in the Northern Cape and include presenters from fellow Southern African countries, namely Botswana and Namibia.
