Dear Esteemed participants,
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Conference commemorating Two decades of the Uganda-Sweden Research Cooperation. The International Research and Innovation dissemination Conference organized by Makerere University shall be held at Speke Resort Munyonyo, Kampala, Uganda from 9th to 10th May 2022.
The major goal of the conference is to bring students, academic scientists, and industry researchers together to exchange and share their experiences and research results about most aspects of research and innovations, and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted.
In addition to the contributed papers, Dr. Stefan Swartling Peterson, Professor of Global Transformations for Health at Karolinska Institutet and a Health Specialist at UNICEF Sweden and Honorary professor at Makerere University School of Public Health will delivered the keynote speech featuring "Two decades of Swedish support to societal transformation through research, innovations and partnership".
We hope you will have a technically rewarding experience, and use this occasion to meet old friends and make many new ones. I trust also that this will be an impetus to stimulate further study and research in all these areas.
We thank all authors and participants for their contributions.
We Build for the Future.
Professor Barnabas Nawangwe
Vice Chancellor, Makerere University
