Das Graduate Network African Studies fördert Doktorierende aus den verschiedenen Disziplinen, Fakultäten und Doktoratsprogrammen an der Universität Basel durch spezialisierte Angebote. In Zusammenarbeit mit der Schweizerischen Gesellschaft für Afrikastudien fördert es gemeinsame Aktivitäten mit anderen Schweizer Hochschulen und den Austausch innerhalb dieses nationalen Afrikastudiennetzes.

In 2013, the ZASB, together with the Research Priority Program Asia and Europe at the University of Zürich, was awarded SUK (now swissuniversities) funding for the joint Graduate Module “Challenges in Interdisciplinary Area Studies”. In Basel, the graduate module developed into a lively community, supporting training for and individual research activities by PhD students within the African Studies network. This formed the basis for the implementation of the swissuniversities-funded Basel Graduate Network African Studies in 2017.
Between 2013 and 2023, a total of 100 young researchers affiliated with the Graduate Module or the Graduate Network completed their PhDs at different faculties of the University of Basel.
Das Graduate Network unterstützt seine Mitglieder bei der Bewältigung der methodischen Herausforderungen im Zusammenhang mit Afrika betreffender Forschung und interdisziplinären Regionalstudien und darin, ihre Ergebnisse für die jeweiligen Disziplinen nutzbar zu machen.
Das von swissuniversities unterstützte Programm zielt darauf ab, die Qualität und Relevanz der interdisziplinären und disziplinären Afrika-Forschung mit gezielten Graduierten-Workshops und Kursen in den folgenden drei Bereichen zu verbessern:
Forschung
Methodik, Interdisziplinarität, Theorienbildung
Themen
Thematische Workshops zu den Schwerpunkten der auf Afrika bezogenen Forschung an der Universität Basel oder aus den einzelnen PhD-Projekten
Skills
Umsetzung von Forschungsergebnissen in praktische Anwendungen u. Präsentation der Ergebnisse vor akademischem und Laienpublikum
Wenn Sie an der Universität Basel promovieren und schwerpunktmässig zu Afrika forschen, sind Sie eingeladen, Mitglied des Basel Graduate Network African Studies zu werden. Doktorierende an anderen Schweizer oder Eucor-Universitäten können eine Asoziierung beantragen.
