Meet our Founders
Founders
Network for Education and Multidisciplinary Research Africa, (NEMRA), was founded by academic researchers from a representation of public and private Uganda based Universities with an agenda to incorporate others on the continent of Africa and beyond.
The founders of this network invested a lot of time and resources to lay the foundation for this network. They were committed to making a contribution to research capacity building in Africa and their efforts have yielded fruits in the last three years. The achievements of the foundational years of NEMRA are an inspiration for the journey ahead.
