项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Over the years University of Nairobi (UoN) has established itself as one of the emerging world class universities in the fields of research and development, training, consultancy services and participation in national policies and governance. Major advancements have been registered in most of these. However, University has major research and grants management gaps that include: Very few faculty and staff trained on grants writing, No established mechanisms for training of principal investigators on UoN grants management procedures and guidelines, no organized grants management system, very limited systematic identification and dissemination of research opportunities, and No organized networks of researchers. This grant will directly address these major gaps by establishing the Office of Research Promotion (ORP) within the Grants section of the Finance Department. The specific objectives of the office are: Strengthen the capacity for research proposals development and grants writing; strengthen grants management and administration, and establish a network of biomedical and behavioral research administrators and researchers from local institutions of higher learning and research in line with the University of Nairobi Strategic plan of 2008-2013. Public Health Relevance: This grant application will go a long way into helping local researchers and grants administrators to gain the required knowledge and skills to apply for and manage grants efficiently. Furthermore, they will be able to conduct multi-disciplinary research activities the outcomes of which will form an integral part in health policy formulations in Kenya and beyond.

描述（由申请人提供）：多年来，内罗毕大学（UON）已将自己确立为研发，培训，培训，咨询服务以及国家政策和治理领域的新兴世界一流大学之一。大多数情况下已经注册了重大进步。但是，大学有主要的研究和赠款管理差距，其中包括：很少有教师和员工接受赠款培训，没有针对UON赠款管理程序和指南培训主要研究人员的既定机制，没有有组织的赠款管理系统，非常有限的系统识别和对研究机会的散布以及没有组织的研究机会。这笔赠款将通过在财务部门的赠款部分建立研究促进办公室（ORP）直接解决这些主要差距。办公室的具体目标是：增强研究提案发展和赠款写作的能力；加强赠款管理和管理，并建立与2008 - 2013年内罗毕大学战略计划一致的当地高等教育和研究机构的生物医学和行为研究管理人员和研究人员的网络。公共卫生相关性：该赠款申请将有助于帮助当地研究人员和授予管理人员获得所需的知识和技能，以有效地申请和管理赠款。此外，他们将能够从事多学科研究活动，其结果将成为肯尼亚及其他地区卫生政策制定的组成部分。
