Topics

This installment in the ORCID in Action: Africa series moves beyond the “why” and dives deep into the “how.” While policy and advocacy lay the groundwork, technical integrations are the engines that power seamless data exchange and global discoverability for African scholarship.

This session spotlights the technical pioneers who are building the infrastructure to connect African research to the world. We will move past high-level overviews to provide a practical, “under-the-hood” look at how leading institutions are successfully implementing ORCID within their local ecosystems.

Our panel of experts will provide a comprehensive breakdown of the integration lifecycle, including:

  • Demonstrations: See exactly how ORCID integrations function within institutional workflows.
  • Deep Dives: An in-depth look at the use cases and their impact on the regional landscape.
  • Development Roadmap: A “behind-the-scenes” look at the build process, including project timelines, resource prioritization, and technical hurdles overcome.
  • The Value Proposition: Concrete data on the ROI of integration—from drastic reductions in administrative burden and manual data entry to enhanced reporting capabilities and amplified global visibility for researchers.

Join us to learn how technical integration is turning the goal of “global visibility” into a functional reality for African research institutions.
