How We Spread Knowledge

Recreating Africa through Skills for Students, Graduates and Start-Ups

Our knowledge dissemination pathways include:

We produce and disseminate boundary-crossing mainly academic papers published in globally leading journals, and our own online journals in key fields of specialization. The papers have a strong focus on interdisciplinary research and real-world impact.

We democratise knowledge through active knowledge sharing platforms, including research workshops and festivals, strategic conferences on topical issues, seminars, summer schools, training workshops, colloquia, policy round-tables, specialist  lunch/dinners with multi-stakeholders, enterprise, innovation and creativity workshops, invited speakerships, expert lectures on cross-cutting topics of strategic importance to national and continental development, among others

We organize stimulating competitions to train young scholars in research and enterprise development, redress gender bias in the disciplines and professions, change retardant institutional  cultures to make them more entrepreneurial and innovative, and to spark community involvement.

Through AFRIHERO Publishing we encourage creative development of highly innovative superbooks and research monographs by African authors, especially jointly with academic and professional colleagues in the Diaspora. These super-texts address relevant facets of curriculum innovations in research, teaching, learning, assessments, and real-life applications.

We prepare indigenous authors for this purpose through workshops on writing quality textbooks and research monographs for different fields of learning, with a balance of local and international examples and case studies.

The training emphasizes publishing texts that facilitate experiential learning using case- and problem-based approaches as appropriate.

It also emphasizes training young faculty in African HEIs on the craft of researching and publishing papers in leading journals.

The key aim is to enable the African learner to work with texts that explore Africa’s socio-economic development needs, texts that surface the voices of leading African authors and the cultural experiences of African businesses and public services in their learning, balanced with global experiences.
