Africa Oxford Initiative AfOx is a platform for academic and research collaborations between University of Oxford and Africa

The Africa Oxford Initiative supports equitable and sustainable collaborations between academics and researchers in African countries and their counterparts in the University of Oxford. At a time when several countries on the African continent are poised for decades of strong economic and demographic growth, we see huge potential both for African universities and for Oxford in strengthening existing partnerships and collaborations as well as forging new ones.
