📢 Important Update for Postgraduate Students!
SAIREP Focus — our curated academic platform under SAIREP, is now accepting papers derived from completed Master’s and PhD chapters.
We recognise that some of the most impactful research happens long before the final thesis is submitted. This update allows postgraduate researchers to share, publish, and showcase their ongoing work as part of our mission to amplify African scholarship. 🌍
When submitting, please ensure that:
You include your ORCID ID in the author details section.
Your paper follows the SAIREP Focus formatting guide (Arial 11, 1.5 spacing, justified, with references).
Tables and figures are welcome.
Let your research speak — even before your graduation. 💡
