A Decade of Building Sustainable Academic Collaborations: The Legacy of the Carnegie African Diaspora Fellowship Program

In celebration of the ten years of the Carnegie African Diaspora Fellowship Program (CADFP), this report explores the impact and legacy of the program. CADFP has bridged continents, enabling African-born scholars residing in the United States or Canada to contribute significantly to their countries of origin. This return of expertise through 665 fellowships and 192 host universities has been pivotal in enhancing African higher education institutions’ academic and research capacities.

The CADFP is funded by a grant from Carnegie Corporation of New York (CCNY).
