Webinar: Enhancing African Research Visibility Through Use of Repositories

Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for 13·5% of the global population but less than 1% of global research output. Why is there such low visibility of its research output?

Open access repositories have created a paradigm shift in enhancing African research output. Where are these repositories and how can we take advantage of them? How should African researchers make use of these repositories to increase their visibility?

Join panelists from Figshare, AfricArxiv, The University of the Western Cape and African Digital Research Repositories (https://www.internationalafricaninstitute.org/repositories) from SOAS University of London as they walk through how African researchers can do to increase their research visibility through the use of open access repositories.
