There are many funding bodies that support educational links, partnerships and their related activities between the UK and Africa. The following categories include some of the major funding 'partnership-focussed' schemes.
It is important to remember that the funding landscape is a dynamic one. African and UK institutions should regularly consult different databases of funding opportunities, sponsors, and programmes that map the landscape as it changes. Research Africa offers a complete funding opportunities alert service (targeted mainly at researchers) including all funding opportunities in a variety of disciplines related to Africa.
