Imperial College London has launched a wide-ranging new seed fund for research and education projects with partners in Africa.
The College will provide funding for collaborations with partners at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) and members of the African Research Universities Alliance (ARUA). This spans 10 countries: Cameroon, Kenya, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Ghana, Rwanda, Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania and Uganda.
The Africa Strategic Research and Education Partnerships Fund aims to help kick-start new, innovative research and education projects between academics, researchers and students at Imperial, AIMS and ARUA member universities.
The research funding stream will support scientists with exploratory research, small-scale experiments or the development of prototypes.
It will also help academics and students visit a partner institute for up to two months to learn new techniques, analyse results and build stronger networks.
