We are delighted to bring you the Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM) and the Global Research Alliance (GRA) on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases call. These grants are aimed at building the capability of graduate and post-graduate level students in Africa to conduct applied research on agricultural greenhouse gases.

The grants focus on the common goal of supporting the development of capability in RUFORUM member universities to support Africa to respond to the goals established by the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, as well as national and regional priorities of African States. The first round of the grants will support participatory action research and training on topics related to the measurement and management of greenhouse gas emissions and removals in pastoral and agro-pastoral ruminant livestock farming systems in Sub-Saharan Africa. Please find the attached call for more details.
