Research Magazine: Innovations, Provocations & Explanations

Building real-world African knowledge that impacts lives 

Sub-Saharan Africa accounts for 13.5% of the global population, but less than 1% of the global research output. At the same time, the continent is at the forefront of battling growing global challenges associated with climate change, inequality, poverty, and global instability. African business schools and universities play a critical role in producing relevant, real-world research that can help us measure the impact of these growing social and economic challenges, and posit meaningful ways in which to improve and advance Africa’s sustainable growth and development.

At Henley Business School Africa, we believe that research should transform perspectives, encourage debate, and impact lives. Our ambition is to build a better Africa through research, and we have evolved a unique model to help us achieve a big impact, even though we have a small faculty base and limited resources.

By viewing research as more than just the crowning achievement of a personal degree journey, Henley Business School Africa is uniquely positioned to bring fresh, independent voices into classroom discussions and provide critical insights to industry. From new researchers to business and professional voices, thought leadership experts, and innovative thinkers, our approach encourages unique insights and exciting collaborations that stretch our academic thinking by putting real-world problems at the heart of our research drive.

Innovations, Provocations & Explanations is our opportunity to highlight the full suite of Henley Business School Africa’s most recent research. Short, sharp, and easy to digest, the essence of our research findings is presented in an easy-to-read magazine with links to the full text.
