About Us

The P-RI is a palaeosciences research and training institute based at the 欧美福利100000 of Johannesburg, South Africa.

Our Vision is to聽become a pan-African hub for research and teaching excellence in the palaeo-sciences, grounded in a service-orientated philosophy.

Our Mission is to develop a socially responsive environment that is integrated amongst cogent disciplines, providing a holistic, yet detailed, understanding of the last 4 million years of human evolution on the southern African landscape. Our motto 鈥渢o function as a compound hafting adhesive鈥� (i.e., to be more effective through the bonding of diverse ingredients) embodies the essence of who we are, namely, individuals from different backgrounds, with variable, but complementary sets of expertise, operating in a multi-disciplinary environment to create a formidable, excellence-driven palaeo-research instrument
