January 2022 and the preliminary results of the survey conducted by ASFAP— YPF.

The Young Physicists Forum (YPF) is a working group of the African Strategy for Fundamental and
Applied Physics (ASFAP). The ASFAP— YPF was instituted to engage rising-star physicists to gather,
study and debate the major issues in their research careers. The main objectives of the ASFAP— YPF are
among others, to create a diverse continent of next-generation physicists to play an active role in
collaborations pertaining to scientific research and educational issues in Africa. Furthermore, the
ASFAP— YPF aims at developing the knowledge and skills of young African physicists, grooming them to
acquire a fuller understanding of industrial, regional as well as global agendas. Since launching ASFAP—
YPF in 2021, the forum has played an active role in identifying the challenges and remedies for young
physicists to flourish in various physics fields. To this effect, the forum has so far conducted several virtual
meetings to share the knowledge. In the just ended January workshop, for example, the forum invited
stakeholders to discuss some of the challenges and opportunities for young African physicists.
The workshop brought together young physicist researchers and feature panelists, drawing almost 80
participants from all over Africa. During presentations and panel discussion, physicists detailed the
challenges facing young African physicists; highlighted existing solutions; and brainstormed new strategies
for research and policy.

Notwithstanding many positive signs that the conditions of scientific research and in particular fundamental
and applied physics in African countries are improving, young African physicits still face a number of
challenges remain in place that need to be addressed by the key stakeholders. A high level panel discussion
chaired by ASFAP— YPF Co-conveners and included experienced panelists who included Dr. Ketevi
Assamagan (Brookhaven National Laboratory), Dr. Lawalley Cole (CAFOR), and Dr. Raissa Malu (IIP),
examined the challenges and opportunities for young African physicists. This panel debated on the
different views to identify the challenges and motivations that shape young physicits’ career trajectories.
Dr. Lawalley Cole said: “Since CAFOR is working at the continental level and is all-inclusive, we
welcome further initiatives from youth-led organizations like ASFAP— YPF promoting African
development and I looked forward to a very lasting working relationship with ASFAP— YPF to promote
science and innovation in general and the subject of physics in particular in the African continent.”

Shortly after launching ASFAP, ASFAP—YPF team developed their own survey to capture evidence of
the challenges facing young African Physicists. The survey, which was sent to African School of Physics
Alumni, ASFAP Community and publicized on social media, garnered nearly 103 responses from more
than 31 countries. Benard Mulilo, who is co-convener at ASFAP— YPF, presented preliminary results at
the workshop about the challenges young African face, reaffirming what has been shown on a smaller scale
in other studies, either in particular African countries or within specific physics disciplines. This replication
of existing findings on a larger scale will be important, he says, when ASFAP delivers its final report to
various groups that help shape academic policies.
Result from one of the questions is presented below. A lack of research funding and funding for equipment
were identified by all respondents as posing the biggest challenges.

The proliferation of engagement groups such as ASFAP— YPF signals that greater awareness, and real
change, may finally be on the way. In parallel to the activities of this young African physicists forum,
there are ongoing international activities in the United States known as Snowmass Early Career (SEC). Julia
Gonski, a DPF Executive Committee Early Career Member drawn attention to the SEC activities and shared
some ideas for long-term strategic plan.
