BUILD CONNECTIONS

OUR APPROACH
We confront complex and often uncomfortable questions through our challenge-based learning approach. This is a cross-disciplinary approach that pushes scholars to examine and develop new perspectives that can be tested, refined and benchmarked in real-world settings. This approach ensures our research delivers meaningful, real-world impact where it matters most—transforming communities and driving change.
Promoting Early Career Scholars
We are committed to growing early-career scholars across the African continent. We provide support and create collaborative opportunities for those keen to engage in cutting-edge research.
SHARING OUTCOMES
A successful CBL approach relies on its ability to share its findings. At ESI, we are able to do this through our open access publishing unit, ESI Press, which publishes peer-reviewed journals, books, and monographs.
ESI Labs shares our discoveries through dynamic dialogues, compelling blog posts, impactful conference presentations, and enriching training programs. As an academic hub, the ESI ecosystem supports and nurtures the next generation of scholars.
