Welcome to OLAM Africa Research Institute

The Institute examines how mobility shapes, and is shaped by, wider dynamics of governance, climate change, digital transformation, and security. With a focus on how these forces intersect to influence human security and development, OLAM advances Africa’s perspectives in regional and global debates.
