Launched by INASP and African Journals Online, Journal Publishing Practices and Standards (JPPS) is a unique framework for providing accreditation and support for journals in the Global South hosted on the Journals Online platforms.
The Journals Online project aimed to increase the visibility, accessibility and quality of peer-reviewed journals in developing countries so that research outputs produced in these countries can be found, shared and used more effectively.
Since 2016 INASP has partnered with the Somali Institute for Development and Research Analysis (SIDRA) to explore and address gender issues in research and higher education and the role of women in research in Puntland.
From 2013-2018 the Strengthening Research and Knowledge Systems (SRKS) programme worked at the individual, institutional and national levels to strengthen research and knowledge systems.
The African Journals Online programme was initiated by INASP in order to raise the visibility of African journals and create a greater awareness of research carried out in Africa. Locally owned and managed since 2005, AJOL now hosts more than 500 African journals.
