State of Africa-related research and education at Finnish Higher Education Institutions

Globally, the importance of Africa is growing, but the share of international research on Africa of representatives of Finnish organisations is small and will continue to decrease. More innovative, multidisciplinary and multicultural Africa research and publications are needed in Finland.

FAPI aims at bringing representatives of Finnish Higher Education Institutions together to engage in mutual, responsible partnerships with African counterparts.

The results of a mapping on the state of Africa-related research and education at Higher Education Institutions in Finland can be found below (in both English and Finnish). There are also slides on the Africa strategies at Finnish HEIs and on African organisations.
