The Research Focus Group for Global Childhood Media, with the support of the Ghana Studies Research Focus Group, is excited to welcome Clara Asare-Nyarko presenting “Childhood and the Role of Adults in the Identity Formation of Children in Ghanaian Children's Literature."
Her talk will will examine the Ghanaian child reader, literature as an agent of conscious and deliberate socialisation, and the field of Ghanaian Children's Literary Research.
