ACAP Mission

We at ACAP believe that making African census data available to scholars worldwide is important; however, availability alone will not ensure that it is utilized on the African continent by African scholars. Hence, the second phase of the activities of ACAP has two major aims:

Aim 1: To create a mirror of this data bank on the African continent. We have taken the preliminary steps to accomplish this objective in several African nations.

Aim 2: To facilitate the collaboration of scholars to produce a multivolume series, A General Demographic of Africa, that will improve our knowledge of African population and society.
