The HERI Africa Research Program is here, bold in vision, far-reaching in impact, and firmly at home with us. Today, alongside our colleagues from Education Sub-Saharan Africa (ESSA), we took the first decisive steps on a transformative journey that will culminate in the official launch of this prestigious program at our University on 18th February 2026. This is more than a beginning; it,s a commitment to research excellence, collaboration, and Africa-driven solutions. Watch this space, something remarkable is unfolding.
