KMAfrica Project Appraisal

The initiative aims at operationalising knowledge-mobilisation and sharing across the continent through having regional chapters. By mobilizing and sharing knowledge, the initiative is to strongly contribute to addressing Africa's challenges in a manner that continuously and effectively links knowledge production with the continent?s development needs in all fields and sectors. Knowledge has emerged as the key factor in wealth-creation and production processes. KMAfrica's aims to be the knowledge engine that drives appropriate development solutions for Africa. This will be done through:

• Facilitating research including funding (research including in the field);

• Facilitating platforms of knowledge exchange - seminars conferences including econferencing;
• Collating African experts on various developmental issues and putting them in one place;
• Providing links to KMAFRICA relevant research and research institutions in the continent and beyond
