AfriScienceNet public guidance and platform policy
March 15, 2026
AfriScienceNet is intended for lawful research discovery, institutional visibility, collaboration development, and related academic or professional use.
Users should not use the platform to misrepresent research capacity, post harmful or unlawful content, interfere with platform operations, or impersonate individuals or institutions.
Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials and for activity conducted through their accounts.
Administrative and elevated roles are assigned through platform governance processes and must not be self-assigned through public registration.
By submitting content, users confirm that the information is accurate to the best of their knowledge and that they have appropriate authority or permission to share it.
Submissions may be moderated, edited for clarity, approved, rejected, or removed if they do not meet platform standards or create operational, legal, or reputational risk.
Do not submit misleading or unauthorized institutional information
Do not upload content that infringes rights or violates privacy expectations
Do not use submissions to spam, harass, or disrupt the platform
AfriScienceNet works to keep information useful and current, but cannot guarantee uninterrupted service, complete accuracy of every submitted record, or uninterrupted availability of linked third-party resources.
Platform features, moderation processes, and discovery surfaces may evolve over time as the service grows.
