DigiGrad Africa assumes that international collaborations/partnerships are one of the ways of enhancing research capacities/postgraduate training in Africa and new opportunities of digitalization can be strategically deployed to enhance internationalization and research/postgraduate training capacities in African universities.The partnership unites 8 universities from Ghana, Kenya, Burundi, and South Sudan, drawing on their different strengths and catering to their different capacity needs, who are members of the African Network for Internationalization of Education who coordinates the project with support from OBREAL Global and universities from The Netherlands, Spain, Italy and Belgium.
