The Global Research Association is a non-governmental, non-profit organization based in the United States, with a field office in Cameroon. Dedicated to enhancing the research process within society, the association fosters a culture of high-quality research, knowledge sharing, and interdisciplinary cooperation on a global scale. Through collaborative efforts, innovative methodologies, and a commitment to excellence, it aims to drive meaningful advancements in research.
By providing resources, training programs, networking opportunities, and access to cutting-edge technologies, the Global Research Association seeks to empower researchers, scholars, and professionals across various fields to address complex challenges, drive meaningful advancements in their respective domains, and contribute significantly to the advancement of knowledge and societal progress
GRA began operations in 2017 within a context of heightened socio-political crisis marked by high rates of school dropouts, falling academic standards and serious decelerating effect on research activities. Most engrossingly, there was a noticeable disconnect between research and community problems.
GRA started activities by rallying research candidates, university professors and research-minded groups to both reflect on ways of improving research activities and connecting the same with community problems.
Membership is composed of research students, academic and research fellows, early career researchers, university lecturers, professors and community think tanks and socio-cultural organizations willing to enroll their members in the process of seeking research-based solutions to community problems.
