The project SET-DEV is coordinated by the Italian National Research Council (CNR) and participated by a consortium of 11 partners from India, Kenya and Europe.

SET-DEV aims to support the research systems and to encourage the socialisation of scientific and technological research in India and Kenya. Within the term of socialisation, the project involves the social dynamics and processes that are part of scientific and technological research, including various operational and cognitive aspects, which in turn include a wide range of cultural and ethical issues.

The project SET-DEV will execute a series of activities through study coordination, capacity building, training and awareness raising initiatives. Have a look at our project leaflet here.

It is a project funded by the European Commission under the 7th Framework Programme and the call SiS-2007- 1.2.2.4. “International dialogue: capacity building in developing countries" launched by the EC DG RTD.
