Africa Chapter
The Africa Chapter of the International Association for Intelligence Education brings together educators, practitioners and students to strengthen the study, teaching and practice of intelligence across the continent.
Our work
Curricula, teaching resources and academic standards for intelligence studies programmes at African universities and training institutions.
A platform for African scholarship on intelligence, security and analysis, connected to IAFIE's global research community.
A professional network linking academics, agencies and analysts across the continent and with chapters worldwide.
Our mission
To expand and professionalise intelligence education in Africa, in partnership with IAFIE chapters worldwide.
How we go about itDiary
A practical session for departments designing or revising an intelligence studies programme.
The chapter's flagship gathering for papers, panels and workshops on intelligence education in Africa.
Worth reading
Reading lists, book reviews and the chapter digest. The part of the chapter that stays useful between conferences.
Intelligence digest
What is being taught, published and debated in intelligence studies across the continent, gathered quarterly.
Reading list
A starting shelf for anyone building or revising a course on structured analytic techniques.
Reading list
Work by authors based on the continent, gathered because it is scattered across journals that rarely cite each other.
