Student Groups

Harvard University offers many on-campus student organizations, groups, and activities, many of which are related to Africa and African Studies. Below is a list of formally recognized Africa-related student organizations across Harvard University’s schools. Please be sure to check your school’s student organization information for the most up to date list of registered student groups. If you would like your Africa-related student organization to be included on this list, please contact Lindsay Moats at lmoats@fas.harvard.edu.

Harvard student groups can apply for the Center for African Studies' student group grant to support activities or events focused on Africa. Learn more on the Student Group Grant page.
