Abstract
The Africa Working Group (AWG) at the RSE is committed to creating and supporting
positive and meaningful engagement between Scotland and countries across
the African continent. In summer 2023, I had the privilege of undertaking a scoping
project for the AWG, to provide an overview of current connections between Scottish
higher education institutes (HEIs) and Africa. That project resulted in a published report, a baseline directory, and a November workshop bringing together key collaborators. A primary observation of the scoping project, and of contributors across academic schools and professional services, was that there was scope for yet more work to be done.
