ASA Wants to Make African Science Easier to Hear
A nonprofit association running free, monthly online science seminars, a short-form popular science journal, and open calls for researchers to present their work.
Field notes
The homepage describes a recurring one-hour videoconference format supported by summaries, posters, and slide archives. Researchers can propose work at any stage, while the journal sets a concrete five-page limit for non-specialist writing and provides a LaTeX template. ASA identifies itself as a French loi 1901 nonprofit based in Maisons-Alfort, with membership, donations, grants, and activity income listed as resources. Its stated longer-term objective is a research center on the African continent.
