Centre Team Continue Efforts to Establish Research Partnerships with the University of Rwanda

A team from the Centre of Development Studies recently made the second in a series of trips to Rwanda as part of an ongoing effort to establish research partnerships with the University of Rwanda (UR). With the valued assistance of the Alborada Research fund, the Rwanda UK Goodwill Organisation (RUGO) and Professor Albert Bizozi of UR, Jolly Dusabe, Jane Lichtenstein and Richard Sidebottom made presentations to academic staff and students covering their research in agricultural innovation, financial inclusion and entrepreneurship. Fruitful discussions were also held with the Kigali Institute of Education and DiFD officials that will potentially lead to exciting areas of research collaboration.
