The PAAA is a professional association whose primary goal is to facilitate the development of anthropological capacity and to promote excellence in the context of Africa’s development. The mission of the association is derived therefore from the tripartite mandate mentioned in the historical background of PAAA.

Historical Background of PAAA
Jun, 22 2005 Published by Fábio Pili

The Pan African Association of Anthropologists is the brainchild of 14 African anthropologists who met in Zagreb, former Yugoslavia in July 1989 at the 12th International Congress of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences (ICAES). After a series of brain-storming sessions at Zagreb, a decision was taken to organise a conference in Cameroon during which the association would be launched.
