Moi University, KenyaHide

The Moi University African Cluster Centre (ACC Moi) is housed in the Moi University School of Arts and Social Sciences (SASS) whose overriding objectives are to offer interdisciplinary teaching and research in the broad field of African studies and to act as the center where all other Africa-focused scholarship in Moi University coalesce. Within the context of these objectives, and building on the very strong tradition of exploring and interrogating diverse ways of knowing Africa that has developed in SASS in the three and a half decades of its existence, the ACC Moi is envisioned as a hub of outstanding inter-, multi- and transdiciplinary research and conversations that will contribute to the greater understanding of Africa in ways that enable the addressing of significant issues affecting the continent.

University Joseph Ki-Zerbo of Ouagadougou, Burkina FasoHide

The African Cluster Center of the University Joseph KI-ZERBO of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso (ACC Ouagadougou) was created in the framework of the Africa Multiple Cluster of Excellence initiated by the University of Bayreuth in 2019. The ACC aims at coordinating research projects of its members from different African research institutions and facilitating the movement of researchers from West African countries within the scope of their missions in the Center. Developing a solid and reliable database is also part of its objectives. Hence, it will be linked to the Knowledge Lab of African Multiple and as such, will be interconnected to the database network of other centers and thus promote the co-construction of a digital research environment.

Rhodes University, South AfricaHide

Rhodes University’s African Cluster Centre (ACC Rhodes) is located in the Faculty of Humanities, Rhodes University. It works with a network of scholars to promote research and teaching on African studies within an interdisciplinary framework. The Centre is established and recognised institutionally according to the Rhodes University Scholarly Entities Framework and is externally funded by the Germany Research Foundation via the University of Bayreuth’s African Cluster Centres of Excellence Strategy. The Rhodes ACC will develop into a fully-fledged African Studies Centre. For this reason, we seek to maintain enduring partnerships with other Cluster Centres and entities of similar intent in our vision of reimagining, repositioning and revitalising African Studies.

Knowledge Lab

Located at the centre of its research activities, the Knowledge Lab interlinks the cluster’s three main research structures: the African Cluster Centres, the Academy, and the Research Sections. It offers a variety of meeting formats—from the ad hoc to the regular and formal—for cluster members and guests to come together and propel academic debates. As the locus of these meetings, the Knowledge Lab assembles scholars and their research projects in various venues to exchange ideas and methods and to engage in debate and systematic reflection. Directed by the Vice Dean of Research, it generates a thriving intellectual and interdisciplinary research environment that also includes non-academics, such as artists and activists, and stimulates transdisciplinary synergies and research.
