UniFrica is being developed to connect African scholarship with global classrooms. The concept brings expert lectures, readings, and activities into the courses faculty already teach, with a proposed share of licensing revenue for contributors.

Scholars and institutions remain connected to their work, preserving authorship and the context behind each perspective.
Faculty bring lectures, readings, and discussion prompts into existing courses through licensed, ready-to-use modules.
A proposed AI companion helps learners explore the source material and form questions. Scholars remain the authority.
Faculty gain expert teaching material without building a new program. Scholars gain a distribution channel with a proposed share of licensing revenue.

Research question
UniFrica connects broader perspectives with our research on human judgment. We’re exploring how future AI-supported learning could help people engage with African scholarship while keeping the scholar’s voice, authorship, and context visible.

Read the education perspectiveAfrican scholars and universities sharing expertise, and global faculty seeking wider perspectives for the courses they teach.
Curated modules bring lectures, readings, discussions, and assignments into existing courses through proposed institutional licensing.
The proposed model shares licensing revenue with contributors and builds toward a wider marketplace for African scholarship.
A platform concept. Institutional pilots, contributor licensing, and AI-supported learning are proposed next steps.
Faculty need wider perspectives within existing courses. African scholars need wider distribution for their expertise. UniFrica brings those needs together through curated learning modules, creating a proposed licensing model that connects access to scholarship with revenue for its contributors.
Bring academic expertise, a teaching context, or an institutional relationship. Together, we can shape a pilot module, agree how authorship and licensing work, and examine how learners engage with perspectives missing from their usual curriculum.
A collaboration can produce a course-ready module, a licensing approach, and feedback from faculty and learners. You leave with a practical teaching resource and evidence to guide its development, distribution, and future AI-supported learning.
