The Council for the Development of Social Science Since 1992, CODESRIA has organised annual thematic institutes targeted at younger researchers and mid-career scholars mainly located in universities and research centres in Af- rica. Over the period since then, the number of thematic institutes organised by the Council has grown, as has the number of scholars invited on an open competitive basis to participate in them. Beginning with the Governance Insti-tute, the institutes hosted by the Council have grown over

the years to include the Gender Institute, the Humanities Institute Programme, the Child and Youth Studies Institute, and the Institute on Health, Politics and Society. Plans are afoot, within the framework of the CODESRIA Strategic Plan for the period 2007 to 2011, to introduce two addi-tion institutes, one on Development Economics and the other on The Social Sciences and ICTs
