In Conversation: Elizabeth Marincola, Science for Africa Foundation

For the second episode in our ‘In Conversation with’ series, Martin Wilson, Head of Content at Taylor & Francis interviewed the Science for Africa Foundation’s Founding Chief Executive Officer, Professor Tom Kariuki, and Senior Advisor for Open Science, Elizabeth Marincola.   The Science for Africa Foundation is the founding partner of Open Research Africa, a publishing hub which enables the rapid sharing, discovery, use and reuse of African research to the benefit of all. This three-part interview covers the challenges facing African countries and the role of science and pan-African research in addressing those issues – including health and the rise of non-communicable and pollution-related diseases, the climate crisis, and equity. They also delve into how Open Research Africa paves the way for research to be more accessible to the wider public and other researchers, allowing for a faster response to some of the world’s greatest issues, by making all research findings open and accessible to all Africans, including open peer review and open data.
