AFRIG promotes research and scholarly activity that draws on African knowledge systems and themes.
The group consists of, but will not be limited to, academic and research staff of African origin from across all ARU schools and faculties. Colleagues with an interest in African research will be welcomed as the group grows.
We also recognise that ethnic minority staff tend to be isolated, hence the need for a network that provides social capital and collaborative opportunities in research. The group will act as a collaborative network of academic and research staff of African origin.
Our inaugural conference takes place in Chelmsford on 23 June 2023, on the theme of Preserving African Culture and Heritage.
We are currently working on 'Policy and Practice Dilemma in African Higher Education Institutions', an article submission to The Journal of Practice Teaching and Learning.
