Company Description
The African Population and Health Research Center (APHRC) is a premier research-to-policy institution, generating evidence, strengthening research and related capacity in the African research and development ecosystem, and engaging policy to inform action on health and development. The Center is Africa-based and African-led, with its headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya, and a West Africa Regional Office (WARO), in Dakar, Senegal. APHRC seeks to drive change by developing strong African research leadership and promoting evidence-informed decision-making (EIDM) across sub-Saharan Africa.
Through its Research and Related Capacity Strengthening (RRCS) Division, the Center seeks to strengthen individual and institutional research capacity to enable African researchers to fully participate in defining and implementing priority population and health programs in the continent. As part of individual capacity strengthening efforts, APHRC has been running a demand-driven research internship program aimed at nurturing talented young Africans to become future research leaders and other professionals.
