Former President Rawlings left Accra last night for the United Kingdom where he has been invited by the Oxford Research Network on Governance in Africa (ORENGA) and the University of Oxford to give a lecture.
The lecture, which is due for 5pm on Monday, May 18, will be on the topic "Democracy and Security in Africa".
President Rawlings who was accompanied by his wife, Nana Konadu Agyeman Rawlings will be addressing students and academics at the Faculty of Law auditorium of the University of Oxford.
A statement signed by aide to the ex-president, Kofi Adams, said other activities lined up for the former President include an informal interaction with students and a dinner in his honour.
ORENGA is a research network that co-ordinates and facilitates research on the politics and modern history of government in Africa. It serves a vital need at the University of Oxford who work in different disciplines on common sets of issues.
Members of the network supervise research students and contribute to teaching undergraduate and graduate degree programmes in African Studies
