Abstract

The first Pan-African Conference on Crystallography, PCCr1, was held in Dschang, Cameroon in 2016. This highly successful meeting attracted 192 participants from 32 countries, including 20 African countries. PCCr2 followed in 2019, with over 200 participants from 35 countries. This was a joint meeting with AfLS and was hosted in Accra, Ghana. PPCCr3 was scheduled to take place in Nairobi, Kenya in 2021. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, this meeting had to be postponed. The Steering Committee of the African Crystallographic Association, along with the Local Organizing Committee of PCCr3, decided to hold an online meeting in order to continue the momentum and sense of community generated during the first two PCCr meetings. ePCCr was, therefore, organized.
