The Alliance for African Partnership, in partnership with the African Studies Center and the Tanzania Partnership Program, is excited to announce the inaugural cohort of the Africa Global Partnership Scholars program (Africa GPS). Africa GPS is a cohort-based, mentored program, designed for MSU early to mid-career faculty members to create and deepen new scholarly partnerships with peers and institutions in Africa. The objectives of the Africa GPS program are to:
The selected scholars will receive $10,000 in support of international travel and scholarly collaboration with researchers and/or mentors at an AAP Consortium member institution. AAP will also support scholars by connecting them to other potential partners, mentors, and institutions in Africa and by offering structured workshops on establishing and navigating international partnerships.
