In the Forum participants were invited to envisage Africa’s future and to consider some of the implications for knowledge and research ecosystems, including for the futures of higher education, science and innovation. Participants also considered how to develop and strengthen collaborative research partnerships and actions to overcome knowledge gaps and injustices of the past.
