Building research partnerships in Zimbabwe
"Don't expect to see animals on our trip into town," the driver told me as we sped along the narrow road between the airport in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe and Elephant Hills Resort where I would meet two Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) Canada workers.
I had just arrived in Zimbabwe for the launch of the LINCZ project, where CMU is a research partner supporting MCC and developing relationships through research with MCC Zimbabwe partner organizations: Kulima Mbobumi Training Centre, Brethren in Christ - Compassionate Development Services and Score Against Poverty, and Zimbabwean institutions: including the National University for Science and Technology and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility at Bindura University of Science Education.
