Welcome to African Association of Political Science
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- The African Association of Political Science [AAPS] is a non profit, non governmental pan-African organisation of scholars whose mandate is to promote the study and application of political science in and about Africa.
- Founded in December 1973 in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, the AAPS is open to individual scholars of African descent specialising in political science, public policy, and related disciplines. It has student membership, and admits scholars of non-African descent and institutions as associate and corporate members, respectively.
- The Association's long term perspective is to grow into a formidable, broad-based pan-African social science institution that would enjoy active moral and financial support from its membership which shall be based in universities throughout Africa and among Africans in the Diaspora, and offer dynamic intellectual and scholarly leadership to the social science community based in Africa, as well as offer technical support to African governments and civil society organisations.
