dc.description.abstractThis essay review offers reflections on “vCIES 2020: Education beyond the Human.” This 64th annual conference of the Comparative and International Education Society, which was to have taken place in Miami, was instead held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We would like to acknowledge Mame D. Ndiaye, a graduate student in the Cornell Institute for Public Affairs at Cornell University, for her en-gagement with our ideas toward a future publication. 1 The word bantaba originates from the Gambia in West Africa and is a derivative of two words in the Mandinka language: bant ‘tree’ and aba ‘meeting place’. Bantaba thus signifies a gathering of community members to discuss salient issues that affect the collective. Generally, under a big tree in the community, issues that matter to all are publicly discussed, with the aim to reach a consensus. 2 In 2020, ASIG submitted a proposal for the CIES Innovation Fund for a Global Bantaba to further expand access to people traveling from Africa. It was not funded due to the advent of COVID-19 and consequent budgetary constraints.en_ZA
