The Africa Charter: Advancing transformative research collaborations between Africa and the rest of the world
The University of Bristol and the Coimbra Group Global Partnerships Working Group with the support of the University of Bergen are jointly organizing a two part workshop to present and discuss the Africa Charter for Transformative Research Collaborations. The Africa Charter, co-created by Africa’s major higher education constituencies, is an Africa-centred framework for advancing a transformative mode of research collaborations.
The 1st part of the workshop on Wednesday 6 November from 10:00-19:30 at the Fondation Universitaire (Rue d’Egmont 11, 1000 Brussels) will combine plenary sessions with small group discussions on the relevance and translation into practice of the Africa Charter’s 10 principles in the evolution of Africa-Europe research collaborations. It will conclude with a networking reception.
The 2nd part on Thursday 7 November from 09:00-14:00 at Norway House (Rue Archimède 17, 1000 Brussels) will explore the implications of the Charter’s 6 aspirations on change in higher education policy and regulatory architectures, for the further shaping of Africa-Europe R&I policy and funding, including within the AU-EU Innovation Agenda as well as in the EU framework programmes for R&I. It will conclude with a networking lunch.
The event will be relevant to university Rectors and Vice-Rectors, academics and staff, policymakers and funders, and the wider R&I community from both continents. The draft programme is available here and registration is open here. You can also find all this information on the event’s webpage.

MareGraph - Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph
The MareGraph project, ‘Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph’, obtained funding under the Digital Europe topic ‘OPEN-AI – Public Sector Open Data for AI and Open Data Platform’. The project will increase the semantic, technical, and legal interoperability of three selected high-valued datasets (HVDs) all maintained by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), which is one of the four partners of the project. This will allow the onboarding of essential marine datasets in the Common European Data Spaces. As such MareGraph will provide a structural component in the digital transition of the marine landscape. The numerous impacts of the project will benefit our seas globally in old and new ways to come.
