The Great War in Africa Association

The Great War in Africa Association (GWAA) is an online community of people interested in the Great War in Africa. It aims to:

  1. Bring researchers of the African campaigns together virtually and through an annual conference.

  2. Signpost those interested in the campaigns to relevant sources of information.

  3. Help those living and working in Africa to understand these little-known episodes of their history and to realise the economic potential of the historical heritage on their own doorstep.

  4. Remember those of all countries involved who were affected by the campaigns, then and now.
