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...)
