Vision, Mission and values

Our Vision

Our vision is to be a global center of excellence, consistently delivering sound scientific evidence for policy and action

Our Mission

Promoting the wellbeing of Africans through policy-relevant research on population and health.

Our Values

  • Commitment to excellence, independence and innovation;
  • Dedication to conducting research in an ethical manner;
  • Integrity, fairness, transparency, and accountability in all our work; and
  • Concern for social and economic equity.

To translate these values into our day-to-day work, we strive to be:

  • A center that engages with stakeholders throughout its work and that delivers on its
    promises;
  • Non-partisan and non-political, engaging in policy dialogue rooted strictly in scientifi c
    evidence;
  • An equal opportunity employer that provides an open, supportive, and stimulating
    environment for all staff to achieve their full potential; and
  • An organization that promotes positive change through ensuring that its outputs have
    local and global relevance, are accessible, and can be applied.

Our objectives

  • To contribute to Science through high impact research projects and publications
  • To inform Policy Decisions with research evidence;
  • To strengthen Research Capacity in sub-Saharan Africa

To achieve its mission and objectives, the Center brings together African scholars to take the lead in developing priority research programs and enhancing use of research findings for policy formulation and program improvement in sub-Saharan Africa.
