| Copy Link | |
| Description: | Since the programme was launched in 2004, there have been six complete rounds of funding with interest steadily increasing. Applications have been from 46 of the 53 African countries (including island nations). In total, 490 pre-proposals have been received and from these, 21 African Fellowships have been awarded to scientists with an average age of 39. Of these, one quarter were from women scientists. The Fellowships are awarded for a period of 4-12 months. A critical part in the assessment of proposals is the potential for each project to achieve impact and improve small-holder agriculture by targeting specific local issues. |
