Adoption of ORCID and other Persistent Identifiers in Kenya, Cote d'Ivoire, Nigeria, and across Africa – opportunities and lessons learned

This session is part of a webinar series on Open Science for the Discoverability of African Research and aims to assist African researchers, librarians, and institutions in the adoption of digital tools and persistent identifiers for a significant increase of African research discoverability, globally and to increase efficiency in scholarly workflows. AfricArXiv is a community-led digital archive for African research communication. By enhancing the visibility of African research, we enable discoverability and collaboration opportunities for African scientists on the continent as well as globally. Learn more at africarxiv.org. ORCID is the persistent identifier for researchers to share their accomplishments (research articles, data, etc with funding agencies, publishers, data repositories, and other research workflows. This webinar series is co-organised by: UbuntuNet Alliance: https://ubuntunet.net/ and Access 2 Perspectives: https://access2perspectives.org/ as part of the ORCID Global Participation Fund: https://info.orcid.org/global-participation-program/ Learn more about ORCID: https://orcid.org/
