Africa Week

Africa Week is the University of Pretoria’s (UP) biennial science leadership summit hosted by the Future Africa platform. Held in May to coincide with Africa Day, this strategic gathering brings together leaders of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) from across Africa and beyond, alongside key stakeholders from government, business, civil society, and the media. The summit provides a high-level platform for meaningful dialogue and collaboration, aimed at strengthening African research, enhancing its global visibility, and amplifying its influence, particularly through the role of HEIs.
