| Name: | African Fellows Programme (AFP) |
| Initiating organisation | |
| Rothamsted International | |
| Description: | The Rothamsted International African Fellows Programme aims to provide problem-focused training in Europe for mid-career African scientists. The Programme started in 2004. The purpose of the programme is to assist in capacity building, institutional strengthening and knowledge transfer in order to find relevant solutions to the problems of achieving sustainable agricultural production, as well as improving rural development and conservation of biodiversity. The development of effective partnerships is fundamental to ensuring the success of the programme in order to build long-term strategic alliances. Fellowships will be awarded on a competitive basis through an assessment panel and will normally be for periods of 6 months although they can vary from 4 to 12 months depending on the nature of the project. Projects on food processing will NOT be supported, nor can the programme support field work in Africa. MSc and PhD studies are outside the remit of the programme (see also Frequently Asked Questions, FAQs). |
