African Research Review
African Research Review (AFRREV) is the publishing arm of the International Association of African Researchers and Reviewers. It is a multi-disciplinary Journal which currently serves as an open access platform for scholarly dialogue for those in the academic world who care about academic issues and sustainable development. Its aim is to publish scholarly research outputs in and on Africa with a view to putting Africa on a path towards a sustainable development through viable and qualitative education. As a result, we conduct and carry out researches in different areas to help our governments and planners move the continent forward.
