Nordic research networks

The Nordic Africa Institute launched in 2005 a new initiative to stimulate further collaboration on contemporary Africa within the Nordic regions. The idea is to support the establishment of narrowly defined thematic networks, which will enhance the infrastructure among researchers working on African and developmental issues within the Nordic countries, and which will hopefully generate long-lasting interaction between researchers involved in emerging fields of research. Each network will be given the financial means to enable them to meet twice in the Nordic regions, within a period of four years.
