AJOTE offers a sincere thank you to AJOTE’s readers and contributors who have patiently continued to 

support our mission while we completed an internal transition.  This transition delayed the last year of 

publication releases. Due to your outstanding support and our Editorial Board’s consistent and thorough 

peer review process, we are back in publishing mode.  

 

AJOTE seeks to increase its expertise across education fields to better serve our contributors and 

readers. To this end I invite applications for Editorial Board membership.  Interested contributors and 

readers are encouraged to submit their statement of interest and CV via email. Thank you for ensuring 

that African education experts’ voices continue to have an international platform to explore and define 

education in all its unique configurations and contexts across the continent. 

 

Sincerely,
