i Message from Chairperson of Council

On behalf of Makerere University Council, I congratulate the Vice Chancellor and the Management team, all staff and students upon the achievements realized in the Year 2017. My special appreciation goes to Members of Makerere University Council for the commitment and teamwork in steering this institution. The University Council has continued to provide strategic oversight aligned to the University Vision - To be the leading institution of academic excellence and innovations in Africa.

The University Council warmly welcomed Professor Barnabas Nawangwe who was installed as Vice Chancellor of Makerere University on 14th September, 2017. Professor Nawangwe succeedes Professor John Ddumba-Ssentamu who completed his ﬁ ve (5) year term of service. Professor Nawangwe becomes the 11th Vice Chancellor of Makerere University since the University was re-established as an autonomous institution in 1970. I look forward to his dedicated service to this great institution. The University also thanked and bid farewell to the Vice Chancellor Professor Ddumba-Ssentamu who served the institution with distinction.

Taking stock of the year 2017, Makerere University Council received and considered business from the relevant Committees and other University organs. Council deliberations underscore the core functions of the University whose key highlights for the year include:

a) Harmonisation and restructuring of academic programmes which is a continious process to ensure the University remains relevant to its changing environment.

b) Operationalisation of the Open – Distance and e-learning (ODeL) Policy spearheaded by the College of Education and External Studies.

c) Council has recommitted 3% of the gross University budget to ICT to give priority to sustaining ICT services and systems. In FY 2017/18 UGX1.4billion was committed for revamping and maintenance of University ICT and UGX1.8 billion for bandwidth.

d) The launch of the Staff Medical Insurance Scheme (SMIS) cover by IAA Healthcare, a member of the International Medical Group (IMG). The scheme will enable the University staff access medical care and reduce on the University ﬁ nancial requirement towards health care.

The year was more peaceful than previous years with less overt staff and student unrest. I want to thank all the stakeholders for having worked harmoniously to avoid un-necessary confrontations that put strain on real time operations and processes of the University all our stakeholders.

The Visitation Committee Report instituted by the Visitor submitted its report. The report highlights key policy and operational issues affecting not only Makerere University but other public and private universities in Uganda. The Committee instituted by the University to review the report has synthesised issues for the Government White Paper on higher education. The Committee has further identiﬁ ed quick wins in improving the operations of the University.

We, as Council, are glad that Government has continued with its promise to enhance the salaries of both Teaching and Non-Teaching Staff. Council and Management will continue to engage Government in this effort to enhance harmony and reduce discontent among staff which equally affects students and other stakeholders.

ii The University is still constrained in its developments and operations due to inadequate ﬁ nancing, both from Government and fee-paying students. I encourage Management to continuously engage and sensitise students to comply with the Fees Policy. I also appeal to students and parents to ensure timely payment of tuition and other dues to ensure that the University remains functional. The delay by students to adhere to the Fees Policy continues to be a major challenge for efﬁ cient service delivery. I also continue to encourage all the students to adhere to the Rules and Regulations gazetted by Council and to encourage Management to develop a student compliance framework to these rules and regulations.

In our endeavour to diversify our sources of income, I am glad to report that our efforts for resource mobilisation entrusted with the Makerere University Endowment Fund and the Makerere University Holding Company representing the University’s quest for ﬁ nancial sustainability have begun to show presence. The Endowment Fund held the inaugural run to create awareness for the Fund and to lay the foundation for resource mobilisation and investment in Makerere University. I want to thank the organisers of the inaugural MakRUN 2017 and all the stakeholders, well-wishers, staff and students for the encouraging response we received. Equally, the Makerere University Holdings Limited (Mak Holdings) hosted the Makerere University Property Investor Conference to market University properties and projects. The Conference offered a platform to present to Investors the available opportunities in the University. We appeal to all stakeholders to continue embracing these initiatives.

University Council greatly appreciates Government support in the infrastructure development of the University. We continue to appeal to government and other stakeholders for additional support in improving the University infrastructure to create an environment beﬁ tting of the premier University in Uganda. We thank the partnership with KCCA which has enabled us improve the road network that has not only eased mobility across the main campus but improved the general environment.

I ﬁ nally address myself to issues of students’ welfare and security. I want to thank the Convocation for the contribution and work so far undertaken on erection of a portion of the perimeter wall. In that same effort, there is extension of the perimeter wall construction under the Memorandum of Understanding between Makerere and Kampala City Council Authority. These efforts on the perimeter wall will reduce the porous borders of the University. We still call upon the H.E The President to honour his pledge to fund the perimeter wall construction to its completion in order to improve the security of all persons and property within the main Makerere University Campus.

This Annual Report gives an overview of the achievements and challenges over the 2017 calendar year. I trust you will ﬁ nd this Annual Report both informative and interesting to read, as We

Build for the Future.

I appeal to students and parents to adhere with the Fees Policy and ensure timely payment of tuition and other dues for the University to remain functional and efﬁ cient in service delivery. I encourage all the students to make dialogue as a means of resolving conﬂ icts and ensure their actions and reactions adhere to the Rules and Regulations gazetted by Council.

The support has tremendously improved the research infrastructure leading to increase in research output and dissemination of knowledge to meet the country’s development needs. The support to the human resource function has also improved the Academic staff proﬁ le.

We are proud of the key milestones registered under the Makerere University Holding Company Ltd. and Makerere University Endowment Fund. The 2017 inaugural MakRUN organised by the Endowment Fund and the Investors conference organised by Makerere University Holding Company Ltd is a true testimony that the University is making positive steps to mobilize and grow resources of the University for the current and future generations.

I would like to thank the entire University community for the support and valuable work in the past year. I also take this opportunity to reach out to the alumni wherever they are, friends, well-wishers and partners to support our initiatives to contribute to the development and pride of Uganda’s premier university and your Alma Mater, no gift is too big or too small.

he Universities and Other Tertiary Institutions Act 2001, stipulates that all public universities produce Tannual performance reports as accountability to the stakeholders. Correspondingly, the Makerere University Strategic Plan 2008/09-2018/19 envisaged an annual review process as part of the Monitoring and Evaluation Framework to track implementation. The plan outlined performance indicators to guide annual assessment and inform institutional learning. The 2017 report provides updates on progress in the implementation of the University Strategy. Makerere University annually produces work plans and budgets to guide its activities, so as to provide a benchmark against which to assess the successes and challenges.

The 2017 reporting is mapped against the strategic plan thematic areas, speciﬁ cally, focusing on the core functions of Teaching & Learning; Research & Innovations; and Knowledge Transfer Partnerships. It further captures the support functions including organisation & management, library services, physical facilities, human resource management, ﬁ nancial management & resource mobilisation which are crucial for a conducive academic environment.

Vision is: To be a leading institution of academic excellence in Africa.

University Mission: To provide innovative teaching, learning, research and services responsive to national and global needs.

In fulﬁ lment of the mission, and in line with the University Vision October 3rd 2017 Times Higher Education World University Rankings of universities in Africa, indicate Makerere University as number 3. Apart from the Times Higher Education, Makerere University consistently emerged among the top ten universities in Africa across the different league tables and University ranking systems.

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences started on the process of reviewing the Bachelors and graduate programmes in a bid to respond to the changing needs of the industry. At undergraduate level, Bachelor of Journalism and Communication is planned to be disaggregated into a Bachelor of Public Relations and Strategic Communication and a Bachelor of Journalism and Multimedia Studies. The unit will further introduce corresponding MA programmes in Corporate and Strategic Communication as well as Journalism and Multimedia Studies. These proposed programmes are intended to equip students with relevant knowledge and skills to deal with the dynamics and complexities of the fast-growing and changing ﬁ elds of journalism and communication. The Department held a consultative meeting with key players in the media industry to further enrich the programmes.

The School of Law in 2017 embarked on a curriculum review exercise. The revised curriculum will be more student focused, problem based and multi-disciplinary linking law to other ﬁ elds of knowledge. Included in the proposals is the opening of clinical legal education methodologies as well as emphasizing the acquisition of soft skills to create a versatile law student. The revived staff seminars at the School will be an integral component of the curriculum review process.

Other proposed programmes in the Colleges of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences, are the Master of Science in Forestry and Biodiversity Management, Master of Science Agroforestry and Community Development and Master of Geographical Sciences. Master of Science in Disaster and Risk Management in the College of Computing and Information Sciences as well as Master of Biostatistics in the College of Health Sciences.

Partnerships are one of the avenues for curriculum review and development. In collaboration with the Agricultural Sciences for Global Development of Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU Global), the Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM) and the Open Sustainability Institute (OSI) hosted a two- day workshop on International Collaborative Education Exchange on Accelerating Youth Education and Innovation in Agribusiness for Sustainable Development. Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) and students from regional universities of Makerere, Gulu University, Uganda Martyrs University, RUCID, ISTVS Somaliland, and Egerton University, Kenya.

3.5 Internship and interface with the world of work Internship provision was integrated in the academic programmes making it mandatory for all students at Makerere University to undertake internship at least once during the duration of their stay at the University. Narratives have begun to emerge on how the experiential learning is inﬂ uencing a better learning attitude and perception towards academic life.

Students during the UMA facilitated training

The Uganda Manufacturers Association (UMA) in partnership with the Ministry of Education, Science, Technology and Sports with support from the African Development Bank (AfDB) organized a two-day internship training program to provide students with an opportunity to secure practical work experience beyond the academic qualiﬁ cations. A total of 647 students received initial training on work readiness 15 and expectations of the Job market by facilitators from UMA in June 2017. A total of 574 students were posted to companies for a 2-6 months internship period. The training targeting completing students from the Colleges of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (CAES), Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Biosecurity (COVAB), Computing and Information Sciences (CoCIS), Engineering Design Art & Technology (CEDAT), Business & Management Sciences (COBAMS) and Natural Sciences (CONAS) was held at the College of Computing and Information Sciences. The training was the 3rd cohort of ﬁ nal year students to be taken through soft skills to enable them transition into the job market. Key areas of focus were personal development & marketing, time management, interpersonal relations and teamwork, effective communication, Customer, ethics at work place and problem solving, key principles of Occupational Health and Safety and report writing.

3.5.1 The Public Interest Law Clinic (PILAC) Under School of Law, the Public Interest Law clinic (PILAC) continues to strive towards training a new generation of lawyers with interest in public interest litigation. The Clinical Education Lessons is an innovation that has attracted big number of students despite the resource constraints. PILAC has grown beyond its Clinical Education and internship activities to include community legal literacy and legal aid activities, Internships, Externships and Moot courts. It is rapidly transforming into a research hub on access to justice issues in Uganda and building public interest litigation in Uganda through capacity building and strengthening the Network of Public Interest Lawyers. Other initiatives in the School of Law that promote interface between the students and real-life situations are the Moot Court Competitions and The Community Law Program and Mobile Clinic (CLAPMOC), that involves taking students to communities as facilitators in legal education seminars. This is a partnership between Makerere University and practicing professionals and qualiﬁ ed advocates as supervisors to students and give free legal advice to community members in need and managing vulnerable clients’ cases by way of Alternative Dispute Mediation (ADR) and litigation in courts of law. CLAPMOC has improved students’ legal knowledge and awakened the spirit of community service. The program has trained 50 lawyers in Public Interest litigation. In the year under review 770 people were served out of whom 357 were males and 413 females. The community literacy program targeted the Police, KCCA, marriage, custody and maintenance and land.

16 3.5.2 Self-directed Learning The College of Health Sciences has adopted the individual self-directed learning as the main method of learning in addition to small group learning based tutorials. Students are taken to visit social institutions to appreciate social paediatrics and children special conditions. Students participated in different disease outbreak investigations (and response), surveillance systems evaluation and strengthening in different Ugandan districts under the Masters of Public Health programme. MPH students evaluated the Leptospirosis (zoonotic bacterial infection with malaria like symptoms) that was reported for the fi rst time in Uganda among children seeking care at the Kabale Regional Hospital. This led to introduction of a case based enhanced Leptospirosis surveillance system with guidelines in 4 health facilities in Kabale District. With the support of the Uganda Ministry of Health Offi cials, the team mentored the health workers and oriented them on the signs and symptoms, case defi nitions, management of cases, blood sample collection, storage, transportation and analysis based on the guidelines.

3.5.3 One Health the Interdisciplinary approach to disease control The University adopted interdisciplinary teaching that draws from two or more academic disciplines working together to create a powerful learning experience. Led by COVAB, the nine colleges had interdisciplinary engagement in teaching of Principles in One Health to Undergraduate and Graduate Students in several modules. The interdisciplinary teaching is relevant for the University in preparing students for a changing world.

Two undergraduate students in two multidisciplinary groups under One Health were deployed in the two communities in Western Uganda to carry out various activities in collaboration with the residents in the communities to detect health and environmental challenges and formulate practical solutions to the challenges. Graduate students were placed at Institutions mentoring One Health to enable them participate in real-time risk analysis, surveillance, reporting and aspects of community engagement, for Highly Pathogenic Avian Inﬂ uenza, Trypanosomiasis, Laboratory data.

The attachment of students to areas prone to disease outbreaks enables students to participate in disease outbreak response and public health interventions in partnership and mentorship of the sector Ministry or National and District Task Force. The students were able to carry out epidemiology studies on the Highly Pathogenic Avian Inﬂ uenza outbreak, Anthrax High Alert in Arua, Crimean Congo Haemorrhagic Fever Outbreak in Nakaseke and Kiboga Districts, and Marburg Haemorrhagic fever outbreak in Kween and Kapchorwa. Makerere University is working collaboratively with the government on the National One Health Platform to identify workforce needs and gaps in the strategies for responding to the prioritised zoonoses. The outcomes will help in incorporation of needed competencies in curricula and training of current and future One Health Workforce.

The MPH Year1Students were placed as “teams” in a total of 13 district fi eld training sites in Uganda. Students implemented targeted activities to gain competences through experiential learning in the fi eld working with the District Health Teams to deliver routine services and contribute to the district human resource capacity. This included health facility support supervision, evaluation of surveillance systems, outbreak investigation, attending district planning meetings, sanitation inspection, conducting immunization outreach activities and operational research as short fi eld studies.

19 4 RESEARCH AND INNOVATIONS

The Floating Fish Feed Machinery

20 Introduction he University has strived to reposition herself as a research led University where research and teaching/ Tlearning are mutually reinforcing as envisaged in its 2008/09-2018/19 strategic plan. In addition to publications in peer reviewed journals, University research and innovations output has targeted national development needs. The Makerere University Research Agenda continues to drive the research focus as a locus for scientiﬁ c discoveries that boost national development.

Initiatives to improve the research thrust and strengthen research capacity include doctoral supervision and mentorship training. These are premised on the fact that post graduate research capacity provides the foundation for the research thrust. The Doctoral Convention is one of the University’s commitment to provide platforms through which PhD fellows at Makerere will continue to academically and socially network, share ideas, engage in collaborative research and access relevant information. The convention brings together PhD students to provide a favourable environment for doctoral mentorship, training and research through peer networking and academic collaborations. The 2017 Doctoral Convention had over 150 doctoral student and supervisors as participants and featured 100 Oral and poster presentations on health and health systems, environment and natural resource management, governance and human rights, science and technological advancement and poverty and behavioural change among other topical areas.

Doctoral Convention 2017 participants pose for a photo with Dr. Wilberforce Kisamba-Mugerwa, Chairperson National Planning Authority and Prof Buyinza Mukadasi, Director Directorate of Research and Graduate Training who represented the Vice Chancellor.

In the effort to improve visibility and access to research outputs, Makerere University embarked on a process of revitalising the Makerere University Press (MUP) approved by Council in December 1995. With support from Carnegie Corporation of New York, the University is in advanced stages of revitalizing the MUP and to 21 publish a minimum of 10 manuscripts per year. To date, a total of 6 manuscripts have been vetted and will be reviewed for publication.

4.1 Policy and Social Research Mak undertook a number of research whose outcomes have implications on policy and impact on society. a) Justice for Promoting Women:

The research on Access to Justice for Women Incarcerated with Children in Uganda; Flaws and Opportunities, was undertaken by the Public Interest Law Clinic (PILAC) in the school of law. The research set out to determine and document the situation of mothers in incarceration with children in prisons and the challenges that mothers face, existing intervention models to harness and enhance access to justice for mothers in incarceration and best practices in order to better advocate for their better inclusion in the justice system and legislative reform. b) Promoting Disability Rights

The Research on Promoting Disability Rights through Legal Education was undertaken by the Disability Rights Project. The research was designed as the ﬁ rst step in introducing the teaching of Disability Law and Rights at the School of Law that has never been part of the Law curriculum. This research forms part of the curriculum reforms process into the teaching of disability rights and law and informs the legal profession and the judicial system to address the legal and human rights challenges of Persons with Disabilities.

c) The Hidden Realities

The research on Hidden Realities; Screening for Experiences of Violence amongst War-Affected South Sudanese Refugees in northern Uganda brings out the importance of responding in humanitarian situations to the injuries refugees carry with them. The research established levels of disclosure and factors inﬂ uencing disclosure in sexual and other forms of violence. It explores approaches to screening for experiences of violence in a range of humanitarian settings and the cost of addressing the most urgent needs. The study offers an important starting point in understanding incidence and prevalence patterns in humanitarian situations and provides humanitarian actors with the responses needed to prevent further violations in the humanitarian setting. d) Land Justice and Governance in Uganda

22 The research on Land Justice and Governance in Uganda resulted into a report on “Land Injustice, Impunity and State Collapse in Uganda, Causes, Consequences and Correctives.” The study was a response to incidents of land loss in Uganda by individuals or groups either to the state, its agents or even private individuals through unfair, fraudulent and/or forceful means. It brings out narratives of different citizens affected by speciﬁ c incidents of land losses as well as the effectiveness of the different governance structures charged with land management; the legal jurisprudential analysis of existing legal framework and a review of key decisions from courts of law. e) The Ugandan Churches and the Political Centre Makerere University College of Humanities and Social Sciences, launched one of its latest publications titled; “The Ugandan Churches and the Political Centre: Cooperation, Co-option and Confrontation. The publication largely explains how the Christian faith and the political centre have been intertwined from the outset in the Ugandan Christian story.

4.2 Health Research and Zoonotic Diseases Management Mak, through the College of Health Sciences (CHS) and College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Bio-security (CoVAB) strived to fulﬁ l the main goals of meeting the current and emerging National Health challenges. The two colleges are geared at enhancing the quality of Health provision to transform the existing challenges in the animal resources and human beings. a) Zoonotic Diseases Management

The research in Animal Health focused on addressing animal disease outbreak and public health interventions. Driven by the global health threat by zoonotic diseases to undermine the efforts for social and economic development, Mak, through the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biosecurity came up with solutions to emerging and zoonotic diseases management through research and creating community awareness. Research was done on a number of Public Health issues such as Brucellosis in cattle and goats in Nakasongola- Uganda and in South Sudan, Ebola, Marburg, Viral haemorrhagic fever, Typhoid and cholera in Kasese, and Salmonella infections. This was achieved by working hand in hand with health bodies to control Zoonotic tuberculosis, provide timely diagnosis, effect treatment, sensitizing communities on public health issues, and

23 fostering inter-sectoral collaboration.

Mak, working in collaboration with the government on the National One Health Platform in the sectors of MAAIF, MoH, MWE and UWA, held a workshop on collaborative approaches in addressing zoonoses outbreaks. b) Surveillance systems for the Most-at-Risk Populations (MARPs) The College of Health Science and Centre for Disease Control (CDC) establish strong surveillance systems for the Most-at-Risk Populations (MARPs) in Uganda implemented through a programmatic activity – Know Your Sero Status (KYSS). KYSS targets key populations at high risk such as people engaged in multiple concurrent partnerships, people engaging in transactional sex, people with HIV-positive partners, or adolescents having sex with older partners. The enhanced surveillance was also implemented in the districts of Kamwenge and Kasese to assess the effectiveness of a new electronic model of linking orphans and vulnerable children to HIV /community services against the current standard paper-based methods of linkage. c) HIV self -testing for partners

Through a collaboration between Schoo of Public Health, Medical University of South Carolina, Mildmay Uganda and Ministry of Health, the HIV self -testing study which is a randomised controlled trial among pregnant women attending antenatal care in Entebbe and Nakaseke Hospitals, and Mpigi Health centre IV, disseminated its fi ndings nationally, internationally and at facility levels. The fi ndings demonstrated an impressive increase in male partner testing, resulting from provision of HIV oral self-testing kits and HIV self-testing was cheaper than the standard of care in terms of the cost per partner tested. The results have been very instrumental in infl uencing change in HIV testing policy in Uganda, to include HIV self- testing as one of the testing modalities in Uganda. d) Scaling up Packages of Interventions for Cardiovascular disease Prevention (SPICES)

The School of Public Health in partnership with six (6) Universities, University of Antwerp, Limpopo University, University of Manchester, Brest University and the Nottingham Trent University did a study on scaling up packages of interventions for Cardiovascular disease Prevention in selected sites in Europe and Sub Saharan Africa. The study highlights the burden of CVDs, their risk factors and the policy environment for their prevention, care and management in ﬁ ve settings; two in sub-Saharan Africa (Uganda and South Africa) and three in Europe (United Kingdom, Belgium and France). The study pinpoints the health system challenges in the different settings and existing opportunities that can be harnessed for CVD prevention, care and management. e) DREAMS Tracker

DREAMS is a PEPFAR supported intervention aimed at reducing HIV infections among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in 10 sub-Saharan African countries. The goal of DREAMS is to help AGYWs develop into Determined, Resilient, Empowered, AIDS-free, Mentored and Safe women. The DREAMS program is currently in 11 Ugandan districts; Bukomansimbi, Gomba, Mityana, Mubende, Mukono, Rakai, Sembabule, Gulu, Lira, Omoro and Oyam with a total of over 158000 AGYWs currently enrolled. DREAMS is implemented at sub-county level by approximately eight partners who include; USAID ASSIST, AVSI, BOCY, Mildmay, MUWRP, PACE, RHSP and TASO. 24 f) AirQo Monitor – a low cost air pollution monitoring technology.

Researchers at the College of Computing and Information Sciences developed low-cost air monitoring devices to measure air quality. Researchers innovatively deployed a network of air quality monitors on boda-bodas and street lights and buildings in selected areas of Kampala city to produce a detailed and near real-time map of air pollution map. The research was done in partnership with Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA), and the University of Shefﬁ eld. The AirQo can be customized to measure other major health damaging pollutants including Sulphur Dioxide, Nitrogen Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide. The research is good for Policy makers to make decisions on pollution based on scientiﬁ c evidence on the magnitude, scale and sources of air pollution for better management and regulation. g) Innovations by students under One Health (OH) Club

Twenty multi-disciplinary student teams with innovative projects won competitive One Health small research grants, of maximum USD 600 each. The innovators developed “Farmers Mobile App” a platform that delivers information on crop and animal farming to the community and Bulamu Mobile which delivers the location of Health Services, and Urban Organic Agriculture.

1.1 Infectious Diseases Institute (IDI) The IDI programmes (Research; Training; Prevention, Care and Treatment; Laboratory Services; Outreach) support Government of Uganda policies, strategies and priorities, at national and local levels. IDI has a mission to strengthen health systems and has maintained unwavering focus on that goal during the year.

The year to June 2017 was a year of change at IDI. The Research programme continued to produce about a publication per week on average; the Prevention, Care and Treatment programme continued to expand its specialised services along with undertaking a major patient safety initiative; the Training programme trained record numbers as well as progressing strongly with the eLearning initiative; the MUJHU Core Lab (Makerere University – Johns Hopkins University) prepared for possible transition to IDI; and IDI involvement in Global Health Security received a major boost with the Joint Medical Emergency Disease Intervention Clinical Capability program in partnership with the Makerere University – Walter Reed Project in western Uganda.

4.5 Agricultural Research and Food Security The College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (CAES) and the College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Bio-security (CoVAB) made advances in the areas of crop production, value addition and agro processing, as well as animal production technology. Key highlights were: a) Mak New Soybean Variety Maksoy 6N: Mak released a new soybean variety Maksoy 6N to the public. The new variety is resistant to soybean rust disease, harsh conditions, lodging and pod shuttering. It is also high yielding, early maturing with high protein and oil content of 41% and 20 % respectively. This variety matures in less than 120 days and produces over 20 tons per hectare. It is the sixth soybean variety released by Makerere University’s Department of Agricultural Production since 2004. The variety is able to withstand harsh conditions and is resistant to pod shuttering. The genes contained in this

variety are very important ergonomically and it is on this basis that they are being released,” ProfessorPhinehas Tukamuhabwa - A Makerere Plant breeder defending his data. Right is a sample of the new Maksoy 6N b) Research targeting increased production in the ﬁ sh and poultry industry

i) The School of Food Technology, Nutrition and Bio-engineering, in conjunction with the Uganda National Bureau of Standards (UNBS), together with International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (ICIPE) from Kenya, under the INSFEED (Integration of insects in poultry and ﬁ sh feed) project undertook research to breed insects (blue ﬂ ies and worms) as an alternative source of
