The central aim of the African Educational Research & Development Foundation (AERDF) is to provide the formal platform for academics across the Continent of Africa and beyond to engage with academic research and the dissemination of the product of such research endeavour in a more professional and coherent manner.

The establishment of the African Educational Research & Development Foundation (AERDF) represents a major step at providing the much-needed professionally coherent Continental platform for academics within the Continent of Africa.
