Julia Binter, a doctoral candidate in social anthropology at the University of Oxford working on precolonial trade and cultural exchange in the Niger Delta who stays in Ibadan in IFRA guest house for some days, made a presentation which was organized and facilitated by IFRA in collaboration with the Department of Anthropology and Archaeology at the University of Ibadan.

On the 28th of October 2015, at the Lecture room in the department of Anthropology and Archaeology, Miss Binter presented her paper titled "Uncovering African Agency - Trade, Cultural Exchange and Imperial Encounters in the Nineteenth-Century Niger Delta". The HOD of Anthropology and Archaeology was represented, the director of IFRA, some IFRA fellows, lecturers, doctoral and post doctoral students from department and elsewhere as well as researchers and interested members of the public paid rapt attention to her as she unravelled her work thus far. She got valuable information from the National archives on the University campus which she was able in inculcate into her work.

At the end, she answered questions and accepted comments and critics from the audience. The feedback was a positive one. Presently, she’s in Warri for further field work and research but Miss Binter hopes to come back to Nigeria and to Ibadan in the future.
