Research hub
Research collaboration across Africa
Find open projects, meet collaborators, and contribute to African-led research with clear expectations from the start.
A better starting point
Know the field, commitment, and open slots before you connect.
Use the directory to compare projects, then open a project page for requirements, responsibilities, and contact details.

Find the right project to join
Research teams across Africa post the positions they are recruiting for — what they are studying, how long it runs, and how many collaborators they can still take. Apply with your ScholAfrik profile instead of a fresh application form.
