Collaborative Research Groups
ASCL Collaborative Research Groups (CRGs) bring together two or more senior members of the research staff of the ASCL, members of the library and support staff, and possibly affiliated members including PhD and Research Master students. CRGs are forums for exchange and debate from a thematic or disciplinary angle, and for initiating joint activities, such as workshops, publication projects, or research. As such, they are vital to the ASCL’s core mission of studying and disseminating knowledge about Africa. Visit the archive of completed Collaborative Research Groups.
