<p>To strengthen Africa’s transition toward knowledge-driven growth, a web-based Research & Innovation Grant Management System was implemented for Rwanda’s National Council for Science & Technology (NCST). The platform digitized the end-to-end lifecycle of grant application, evaluation, sanction, fund monitoring, and research permit approvals under the National Research and Innovation Fund (NRIF). </p><p>Supporting Rwanda’s Vision 2020 and Vision 2050, the solution improves transparency, fund traceability, and policy-driven investment in innovation, while enabling secure collaboration between researchers, reviewers, donors, and government bodies across Africa’s innovation ecosystem. </p><p><br></p>
Manual, paper-based grant and research permit processes caused delays, poor visibility, and inefficient fund tracking.
