African Humanities Research and Development Circle (AHRDC) started in 2015 with a group of five scholars drawn from the disciplines of History and Philosophy. We have since expanded our ranks to include scholars from Anthropology, English and Foreign Languages, Fine and Applied Arts, Missiology, Sociology and Peace and Conflict Studies.
