About the event

Reimagining African Research: Moving from Dependence to Independence
Seminar Series | Reimagining African Research: Moving from Dependence to Independence

With U.S. funding cuts shaking Africa’s research landscape, how can African universities and scholars chart a path toward independence and sustainability?

Join the University of Johannesburg Library and Higher Education Media for our second hybrid seminar (in-person & podcast), as we bring together research leaders, academics, policymakers, and civil society voices to explore:

Breaking free from external research dependence

Building robust, African-led research agendas

Innovative funding models & regional collaboration

Strengthening graduate programs and research infrastructure

Ensuring equitable global partnerships

💡 This is more than a conversation; it’s a call to action to reshape Africa’s place in global knowledge production.

📅 Date: 27 August 2025
📍 Venue: Nadine Gordimer Auditorium (Level 5)
