PAST EVENTS

The 1st of October, 2021 we had the opportunity to celebrate the launch of Batman Saves the Congo, co-hosted by the Centre for Business and Development Studies (CBDS), and Commodifying Compassion (CoCo) at Copenhagen Business School.

With a warm introduction by Dorte Salskov-Iversen, together with great discussants Eric Guthey, Consolata Sulley, Kasper Hoffman and Lene Bull Christiansen as well as moderator Hannah Elliot, the authors engaged in lively discussions around the book with topics ranging from Congo’s colonial history and art scene, elite politics in Africa to celebrity charisma and accountability. A big thank you to all discussants, guests, and staff for making this successful book launch possible!
