On the first two days, about 450 German and African scientists, government
representatives and other experts came together in workshops to discuss some of the BMBF’s research programmes. The workshops were devoted to specific
science and education-related issues and to networking among the experts. In addition to specialist discussions, the workshops also addressed cross-cutting issues. The resulting final document with recommendations was presented to Federal Minister Prof. Dr. Johanna Wanka during the final plenary session on 18 March 2014. The results of the workshops and the recommendations of the experts from Germany and Africa will be taken up in this Africa Strategy.
The brochure and the film about the Africa days of the BMBF, as well as the Africa strategy of the BMBF are available in German, English and French on the following website www.internationales-buero.de/en/6995.php.
