New Publication Alert: The PAQI TBT/QI Stocktaking Version 2026!

We are pleased to announce the release of the new PAQI TBT/QI Stocktaking Version 2026, taking place on 12 November 2026 from 11:30 to 13:00 EAT.

Developed through close collaboration between the PAQI Pillars (AFRAC, AFRIMETS, AFSEC and ARSO), this initiative aims to systematically capture and compare the current state of Quality Infrastructure (QI) across African states. It will provide a clear overview of existing capabilities and identify critical gaps to drive future development.
