This is the channel of the UR-Sweden Programme for Research, Higher Education and Institutional Advancement.
The UR-Sweden Programme is the largest bilateral program currently funded by Sida, the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency. In line with the development goals of Rwanda, the UR-Sweden Programme consists of three components: Research Training, Research Infrastructure and Research Management. Together they form the basis for building research capacity at the University of Rwanda.
The programme consists of twenty subprogrammes divided into three components. In these subprogrammes twelve Swedish partner universities are involved in building research capacity in a wide range of academic fields. In the current third phase, the Programme has a budget of 50 million USD.
