This book presents a selection of the presen-tations that were made in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, on March 8-10, 2018 during the International Forum on «Women and Sustainable Development in Africa» organised by NASAC, the network of African Science Academies, in collaboration with the Tanzania Academy of Sciences and the French Académie des sciences, in partnership with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the French Development Agency, the French Institute for Development Research, the Sanofi Espoir Foundation and the Inter-Academy Partnership. The novelty of this forum was the emphasis on the role of science in resolving issues using an African scientists' perspective. The conference highlighted how accelerated sustainable develop-ment is possible by proactively engaging women in policy and decision-making processes. The Forum thus provided a platform for scientists to dialogue with and, provide evidence-informed advice to policy makers on the value of women's participation and inclusion in national frameworks for realisation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs); in particular, SDG 5 on 'Gender Equality'. This document brings together high-level interventions on women's position in science, development, education, political action and health. It ends with the statement, «Women and sustainable Development in Africa, Dar es Salaam Declaration of 10 March 2018», which is a 9-point call to policy makers and international institutions to ensure that African women can play their full role in the sustainable development of the Continent.
