This workshop joined mathematicians from Sénégal, Germany and various other countries to discuss the topics of shape optimization, homogenization and control and to explore mutual interests and options of further joint research. The contributions in this volume give an insight into current research activities in Africa, Germany and internationally in those fields. Seeds for collaboration can be found in the first four papers in the field of homogenization. Modelling and optimal control in partial differential equations is the topic of the next six papers, again mixed from Africa and Germany. Finally, new results in the field of shape optimization are discussed in the final international three papers. This workshop has been supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), which is the la
