The Future of Work (FoW) Research Initiative, Central and West Africa Hub, is pleased to announce the successful closure of its first Request for Proposals (RFP). The call, which officially closed on August 2, 2024, received an impressive response with nearly 100 completed applications.
This enthusiastic participation underscores the growing interest in understanding the ongoing transformations in the world of work,” said Prof. Peter Quartey, Director of ISSER. “The need for region-specific evidence to support relevant policy recommendations is clear, and this strong response reaffirms the critical importance of the FoW for the West and Central Africa region.
The participation of research entities across the two regions has significantly broadened the reach and impact of the initiative, ensuring that the crucial issues of the future of work are addressed across the diverse contexts of Central and West Africa.
