Abstract
The Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM) organized a proposal Write-shop as part of its effort to mobilise and strengthen research capacity in African agricultural universities and research institutions. The Write-shop targeted developing proposals for submission to African Union Research Grants 2018 Call for proposals with a deadline of 22nd May 2018. The Write-shop focused on building capacity of African researchers to design research projects that integrate diverse stakeholders including private sector, industry, farmers and policy makers to strengthen the relevance of research in addressing rural development, national and economic challenges. It was a platform for African researchers to network and link up with each other and collaboratively develop and implement projects beyond the African Union Research Grants 2018 Call for proposals. The write-shop was held in Entebbe, Uganda at the Imperial Resort Beach Hotel from 16th to 20th April 2018.
