The GVF (Global Village Forum) is a center of learning that features monthly group discussions at CSUN. It is intended to function as a window onto the world and to raise awareness of our world as a Global Village. The objective of this forum is to introduce students to “alternative” views of contemporary African culture and society and its relationship to globalization. Globalization is shaping African societies in new ways.
