Africa is a continent of rich culture and biodiversity. In the African countries where we operate, there are a lot of research opportunities that can be carried out. Elghana offers placements and work in collaboration with other universities, health centres and ministries in the various countries.

As a research volunteer, you could be working on a specific project to obtain some results relevant for your study. When studying, there are a huge range of educational research topics and we help you find answers to your questions. No matter your field of study, arts or social sciences, natural or life sciences or engineering, we can offer assistance by placing you with the right organisation/institution for your research work. This could be an opportunity for students and professionals to enhance and develop their knowledge and improve the quality of their work. Research for Academic, economic and development purposes are supported by Elghana, we offer opportunities to anyone interested in any field of study. It could be related to climate, culture, health, governance, peace building or socio-economics. Your role depends largely on your field of experience and/or interest. You could be participating in hands on research to help conserve endangered species, assisting the research and community education team on that particular project. You could also be researching into socio-economic issues that may be affecting the country or gathering information in relation to problems such as the incidence of a particular disease in a community.

Previous volunteers have carried out vital conservation and research work on areas such as rainforest and savannah ecosystems, conservation and biodiversity studies and social sciences among others alongside expert scientists, local students and people. With your research objectives in mind, we can help you find an appropriate area of research and placement while offering the necessary assistance.

Aside using your knowledge to help some of the poorest communities in Africa, you expand your knowledge by learning from other scientists, local students and the communities as a whole. Researching your dissertation abroad helps you present an original item of study. You are also able to gain insight into a new country and culture.
