The panel focuses on itineraries, i.e. paths of mobility that are understood in a dual sense: as actor-centred practices as well as areas of representation. Africa can convey a meaning as geographical, imagined or socially constructed space. Mobility - understood in the broadest definition, the media with which itinieraries are "travelled" through and constraints to mobility - such as physical, racial or social boundaries, the actors and their agency stand in the limelight.
