RESEARCH FACILITY (CLARF)

[Science, Technology and Innovation Secretariat🇺🇬 @STIsecretariat]

The Hon. Minister for Science, Technology and Innovation, Hon. Eng. Jonard Asiimwe Akiiki, continues his engagements at Makerere University, moving through faculty exhibitions and interacting directly with researchers, scientists and innovators.

The engagements are providing the Minister with a deeper understanding of the research, technologies and innovations already existing within the University.

The Ministry’s focus is to strengthen the pathways that translate Uganda’s research capability from laboratories and universities into technologies, products, industries and economic value for the country.
