Project description

The project aims to collaborate with African researchers and writers outside of UGent in small-scale scientific research studies, and in dissemination of research output. 

The Principal Investigator will present his research at external organisations, using funding from this grant. 

Guest writers and researchers will be invited to pressent at Ghent, and may be hosted in Ghent for a short period of time. Student assistants will be employed when needed to help with the research support and administration.

 

The expected outcome will be joint research publications and presentations.
