The ResilientAfrica Network (RAN) is a partnership targeting 20 African universities focused on strengthening the capacities of vulnerable African communities to withstand natural and man-made shocks and stresses. It will also broaden and deepen understanding of resilience and encourage policymakers, development practitioners, university researchers and faculty, and others to incorporate resilience programming into humanitarian and development efforts. RAN will harness science, technology, and African innovations to develop solutions that strengthen the resilience of communities against natural and man-made shocks and stresses. RAN uses a resilience framework to analyze data and enables people to discover how to be more resilient to the shocks and stresses.
RAN will engage a wide network of students, faculty members, private sector and the community in improving well-being through generating local African innovative solutions to specific development challenges.
RAN is led by Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda, in partnership with Stanford University, Tulane University's Disaster Resilience Leadership Academy (DRLA), and the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). Funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), RAN is one of seven development labs under the agency’s Office of Science and Technology’s (OST) Higher Education Solutions Network (HESN).
