THEME: Research and Innovation for Socio-economic well being in Tanzania.

DATE:11th-12th APRIL 2023.

LOCATION: University Library Auditorium, University of Dar es salaam.

 

INTRODUCTION

The University of Dar es salaam has been organizing the Research and Innovation week (formerly known as Research Week abbreviated as RW) since 2015 for showcasing competitive research results. The main drive is to bring together these diverse groups of researchers to share and further scholarly and creative research work and highlight some of their best research outputs and innovations. UDSM RW events are normally carried out first at Unit level followed by a university-wide level. During the events, the University community recognizes students, faculty, departments, schools, colleges and institutes for their cutting edge scholarly and creative research activities through a series of discussions, forums, dialogues, symposia, exhibitions, seminars, workshops and award ceremonies. In general, RW has succeeded in many ways such as motivating students and staff members of the University to continue with the impetus of searching for competitive knowledge and creative innovations. This mini conference provides an opportunity for researchers in the College of Natural and Applied Sciences (CoNAS) to share and discuss their research with peers of the University and beyond.
