21 new Africa-UniNet projects

A total of 21 cooperative research projects between universities and research institutions in Austria and in eleven different countries in Africa (Ethiopia, Burkina Faso, Kenya, Morocco, Gabon, Ghana, Lesotho, Uganda, South Africa, Nigeria, Namibia) were accepted for funding. The projects are financed by the Austrian government with a total funding amount of approx. 500,000 EUR for a project duration of up to two years. They all share a cooperative and participatory approach as well as the objective to contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.
