P360 Academic & Research Hub
Bridging research, policy, and practice to drive evidence-based development across Africa and the Global South.
What is the P360 Academic & Research Hub?
The Prosperity360 Academic & Research Hub (P360-ARH) functions as a knowledge-to-practice backbone, linking universities, research institutes, researchers, think tanks, and policy labs directly into ward- and LGA-level prosperity systems.
We bridge the gap between academic research and grassroots implementation, ensuring that evidence informs policy while community realities shape research agendas.
