Dr Jaco Hoffman is Associate Professor at the Optentia Research Focus Area at North-West University (Vaal Triangle Campus), South Africa where he leads a programme on Ageing and Generational Dynamics in Africa. He is also James Martin Senior Research Fellow, Oxford Institute of Population Ageing, University of Oxford, UK from where he coordinates the African Research Network on Ageing (AFRAN). This network aims to bring together African and international institutions and individuals from academia, policy and practice to develop and expand African research and training capacity on ageing. Dr Katrien Pype is Assistant Professor at the Institute for Anthropological Research in Africa, University of Leuven, and Fellow of the Department of African Studies & Anthropology at the University of Birmingham, UK. Her research focuses on how people, elderly included, make sense of communication technologies in their daily lives and how it impacts urban lifeworlds.
