Welcome To African Researchers Magazine

African Researchers Magazine

African Researchers Magazine (ISSN: 2714-2787) is a non-profit, peer-reviewed scholarly publication dedicated to strengthening the visibility, communication, and global impact of African research and innovation. Our mission is to promote effective science communication, facilitate knowledge dissemination, and bridge the gap between African researchers and key stakeholders—ensuring that African scientific knowledge reaches policymakers, practitioners, industries, and communities that need it most.

Through a science communication–driven approach, we transform complex academic research into accessible, engaging, and impactful narratives that support evidence-based policymaking, capacity building, and sustainable development across Africa. We publish and promote high-quality, evidence-based African research spanning multiple disciplines—including health sciences, education, technology, environment, business, agriculture, and social development—while upholding the principles of open access, academic integrity, and scientific excellence. Read more …
