African Researchers Magazine

African Researchers Magazine (ISSN: 2714-2787) is a non-profit scholarly publication dedicated to facilitating effective communication and dissemination of African research. Our primary objective is to promote and highlight African research findings, ensuring their accessibility to a broad range of end-users, including governments, policymakers, practitioners, professionals, academics, business people, NGOs, and the general public across Africa, as well as African researchers and scholars in the diaspora. By doing so, we aim to influence decision-making processes for the greater good of the continent and help make African research noticeable and acknowledged by the international community, while also enabling global audiences to learn about the challenges, developments, innovations, and accomplishments of African researchers and scholars at home and in the diaspora. Read more …
