The EU under its Intra-Africa Academic Mobility Scheme, has provided funding to
support training of graduate students in African universities.
In this mobility program, six African partner institutions and one EU Technical
partner will collaborate in the training of professionals to strengthen fragile
ecosystems (FE) management in Africa, which will lead into reduced environmental
degradation and sustained food production by small-scale farmers.
Partners include Makerere University (Uganda), Uganda Martyrs University
(Uganda), Mzuzu University (Malawi), University of Abomey Calavi (Benin),
University Cheikh Anta Diop of Dakar (Senegal), Eduardo Mondlane University
(Mozambique) and Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (Sweden) as a
technical partner.
The project is expected to contribute to:
• Establishing regional learning platform
for improved fragile ecosystem
management (FEM);
• Internationalizing and harmonizing of
training in FEM,
• Enhancing skills of University
administrative staff to manage mobility,
• Improving training skills of academic
staff of targeted Universities and
• Training of high caliber professionals in
FE management.
A total of 23 Masters and 11 Doctorates will be
trained in the thematic areas of Agroforestry,
Ecology and Adaptation; Taxonomy, Biodiversity,
Ethnobotany and Natural Resources Conservation
and Valorization; Agro-Ecology and Food
Systems; Forest, Ecosystem, Environment and
