Project Description

This program is a collaborative partnership between the University of Nigeria (UNN) and University of California San Diego (UCSD) to strengthen UNN research administration and management infrastructure to manage HIV research funds. The program will build research capacity at UNN by:

  1. understanding the needs and gaps in research administration and management at UNN;
  2. improving the grants management and proposal development knowledge, skills, and proficiency of UNN research administrators and HIV implementation researchers; and
  3. strengthening the ability of UNN research administrators and HIV implementation researchers to submit successful NIH, CDC, and other donor-funded HIV grant applications by providing mentorship, ongoing coaching and online courses from UCSD program instructors.
