This hybrid event featured in-person and virtual presentations. CARISCA hosted all sessions in Ghana at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi and virtually via Zoom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Research Summit is an activity that is central to CARISCA\u2019s goal to put Africa\u2019s supply chain research on the map. This annual event aims to strengthen African supply chain capacity. We achieve this by bringing together academic and non-academic researchers and public, private and civil society organizations to create an ongoing dialogue to address complex supply chain challenges in Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nearly 800 people from 42 countries registered for the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2022 Summit featured three keynotes, more than 50 paper presentations, four invited sessions and a dissertation award session. Researchers and practitioners presented papers during three parallel tracks: general supply chains, sectoral supply chains and emerging issues in global supply chains.&nbsp;Thirty-two percent of attendees were women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/research.wpcarey.asu.edu\/carisca\/2022\/07\/25\/second-annual-supply-chain-research-summit\/\">Read about the summit highlights <\/a>   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-luminous-vivid-amber-background-color has-text-color has-background\"><strong>The 2023 Summit, &#8220;Africa\u2019s Supply Chains and the Future of Work,&#8221; is planned for June 20-22, 2023, in Ghana&#8217;s capital, Accra.
