KENET Research infrastructures
Our vision for having works by Kenyan researchers publicly available and accessible has been realized by the upgrade of our Research Infrastructures. Research Infrastructures (RIs) are the facilities, resources and services used by the science community to conduct research and foster innovation. By putting together efforts and developing RIs for the community, KENET’s long term goal is to improve the overall research productivity of the country.
