The Africa-US Universities Conference, hosted by the African Centre for the Study of the United States at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa, aims to enhance academic collaboration and cultural exchange between African and U.S. This hybrid event, taking place both in-person and virtually, will gather scholars, administrators, policymakers, and students to explore innovative models of engagement in higher education. The conference builds on discussions from the 2022 US-Africa Leaders’ Summit in Washington, D.C., and seeks to foster institutional partnerships that benefit both regions.
