New Directions in Development Studies and Sustainability (NDDS)

In the midst of multiple global challenges, NDDS-project (2022-2024) engages with collaborative redesign of the curricula of Development Studies and provides a platform for PhD students in development studies to gain research skills and discuss their dissertations. The collaborating institutes include: University of Helsinki (Finland), Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥, (Finland), University of Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), University of Dodoma, (Tanzania), and University of Zambia (in Lusaka, Zambia).
