Extensive fieldwork is a core component of our research in the Sahel and in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our researchers combine qualitative and quantitative methods to produce high-quality research of direct policy relevance to both Norwegian and international stakeholders.
Fafo's current research in Africa focuses on:
- mobility and displacement
- war and peacekeeping economies
- local and global developments in education
- health and child labour
- social movements and inequality
- politics of faith and secularism in the Sahel
Fafo receives funding for our Africa projects from a range of institutions, including the Norwegian Research Council, the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the World Bank, the US Institute of Peace, and the Norwegian Development Agency (NORAD).
