Fontes Historiae Africanae/Sources of African History (FHA) is an international editing and publication project which was initiated in 1962 to organise a series of the sources of the history of sub-Saharan Africa. It is directed under the General Auspices of the Union Academique Internationale (UAI), and two general series co-editors, Silvester Trnovec from the Slovak Academy of Sciences  and Mohamed Diagayeté from the Ahmed Baba Institute of Higher Learning and Islamic Research, Timbuktu, Mali. The British Academy established a British Committee in 1973 which published 10 volumes, and a new series in 1995 which to date has published almost 20 volumes. The FHA is committed to making African history as widely available as possible, and to that end is seeking to develop partnerships with African publishers to facilitate co-publication on the continent.
