## Description

The Research and Innovation Systems for Africa (RISA) Fund is a groundbreaking multi-country project that aims to strengthen research and innovation systems across Africa. Supported by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office (FCDO), RISA provides funding opportunities and resources to organizations in Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Ghana, Nigeria, and South Africa. With a focus on enhancing research capabilities and promoting innovation, RISA plays a vital role in driving positive change and sustainable development in Africa. By fostering academia-industry alliances, RISA empowers researchers and promotes the commercialization of research output and intellectual property. Through its funding opportunities, RISA has already supported a range of impactful projects throughout Africa, including the R2C programme in Kenya, which strengthens the commercialization of research output, and the Farm 2 Fork project in Rwanda, which promotes agricultural transformation.
