Welcome

AfricaArray is an initiative to promote, in the full spirit of the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD), coupled training and research programs for building and maintaining a scientific workforce for Africa’s natural resource sector. AfricaArray's initial focus is on geophysics to:

  • Maintain and develop further geophysical training programs in Africa, in response to industry, government and university needs.
  • Promote geophysical research in Africa, and establish an Africa-to-Africa research support system.
  • Obtain geophysical data, through observational networks in participating countries, for studying scientific targets of economic and societal importance, as well as fundamental geological processes shaping the African continent. (more...)
