The Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) is celebrating research and academic excellence as it emerged first among the ten top institutions which participated in the OR Tambo Africa Research Chairs Initiative (ORTARChI) selection process, an announcement from the University says, adding that the process was coordinated by the National Research Foundation (NRF) of South Africa.

The launch of the chairs, which was held on 27th October, 2020, coincides with what would have been O.R Tambo’s 103rd birthday, a legend known for his passion for freedom, science and technology.

according to the release, the ORTAChI aim is to support a new strand of Research Chairs, with a clear and inclusive focus on the African continent to catalyse the impact on the development of research infrastructure in recipient countries; and contribute to knowledge production and high-end skills in alignment with the African Unity (AU) Agenda 2063 and STISA 2024.
