Contact Information: outreach@africa.wisc.edu

African Studies includes regional, diasporic, and cultural studies related to all parts of the African continent.

Inspired and guided by the Wisconsin Idea, the African Studies Program shares the expertise, talents, and scholarship of the University of Wisconsin-Madison to promote the study of Africa in schools and communities across Wisconsin. We are proud of our legacy as pioneers in African Studies outreach in the Upper Midwest, and we look forward to great future partnerships with educators, business leaders, and communities.
