The African Studies Association (ASA) was established in 1957 and is the largest globally represented membership organization in the world dedicated to enhancing the exchange of knowledge and information about Africa.
The ASA encourages the production and dissemination of knowledge about Africa in both historical and contemporary contexts. The ASA is based in the United States, and aims to cultivate a better understanding of the continent, taking a holistic approach to its areas of focus. This includes all facets of Africa's political, economic, social, cultural, artistic, scientific, and environmental landscapes, to name a few. Our members include scholars, students, teachers, activists, development professionals, policymakers and many others.
The ASA achieves its mission by:
* Providing Access to path-breaking research and key debates in African Studies
* Facilitating interdisciplinary exchanges with African scholars and institutions
* Publishing high quality research on Africa-related issues
* Fostering networks of Africanist scholars and practitioners through the Annual Meeting and other forums
* Addressing the challenges faced by universities engaged in research, teaching and outreach related to Africa
* Broadening professional opportunities on African issues
* Promoting a better understanding of Africa through academia, policymakers, NGOs, media, business, learned societies, and other interested communities
