The main platform for African-published peer-reviewed journals, covering medicine, the sciences, law and the social sciences.
Before you rely on itNot all of it is open: abstracts are free throughout, but the non-open-access share needs a per-article payment or a subscribing library, and hosted journals vary in how completely their back runs are online.
Research from African institutions that is largely absent from the big Northern indexes, and essential for tropical medicine, agriculture and regional policy.Telebem editors
