The ASLP is an initiative of the University of Pretoria in partnership with the Global Young Academy, funded by the Robert Bosch Stiftung. It serves early- to mid-career researchers in basic and applied science, engineering, social sciences, arts, and the humanities. The program aims to grow mid-career African academics in the areas of thought leadership, team development, engagement, and collaboration, with the intention of enabling them to solve the complex issues that face both Africa and the global community.

  • Creative and systems thinking
  • Development of effective networks

  • Maximizing the efficiency and impact of collaborative efforts
  • Advanced dialogue and communication skills
  • Effective problem solving and decision making
  • Following the first training week, fellows will apply their skills to a project relevant to their context and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). 
  • During the year, participants will continue to engage with the group and have access to professional support. 
  • The costs incurred during the workshop (training, relevant travel, meals, and accommodation) will be covered by the program. 
  • In March 2021, fellows will complete their projects and present them at the second in-person training, which will consist of 3 days.
