DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Over the years University of Nairobi (UoN) has established itself as one of the emerging world class universities in the fields of research and development, training, consultancy services and participation in national policies and governance. Major advancements have been registered in most of these. However, University has major research and grants management gaps that include: Very few faculty and staff trained on grants writing, No established mechanisms for training of principal investigators on UoN grants management procedures and guidelines, no organized grants management system, very limited systematic identification and dissemination of research opportunities, and No organized networks of researchers. This grant will directly address these major gaps by establishing the Office of Research Promotion (ORP) within the Grants section of the Finance Department. The specific objectives of the office are: Strengthen the capacity for research proposals development and grants writing; strengthen grants management and administration, and establish a network of biomedical and behavioral research administrators and researchers from local institutions of higher learning and research in line with the University of Nairobi Strategic plan of 2008-2013. Public Health Relevance: This grant application will go a long way into helping local researchers and grants administrators to gain the required knowledge and skills to apply for and manage grants efficiently. Furthermore, they will be able to conduct multi-disciplinary research activities the outcomes of which will form an integral part in health policy formulations in Kenya and beyond.

描述（由申请人提供）：多年来，内罗毕大学（UoN）已成为新兴的世界一流大学之一，在研究和开发，培训，咨询服务和参与国家政策和治理领域。其中大多数都取得了重大进展。然而，大学有重大的研究和赠款管理差距，包括：很少有教师和工作人员接受过赠款写作的培训，没有建立机制来培训主要研究人员对UON赠款管理程序和准则，没有组织的赠款管理系统，非常有限的系统识别和传播研究机会，没有组织的研究人员网络。这笔赠款将通过在财政部的赠款部门内建立研究促进办公室（ORP）来直接解决这些主要差距。该办公室的具体目标是：加强研究提案编制和赠款撰写的能力;加强赠款管理和行政，并根据内罗毕大学2008-2013年战略计划，建立一个生物医学和行为研究管理人员以及地方高等教育和研究机构研究人员的网络。 公共卫生相关性：这一补助金申请将大大有助于当地研究人员和赠款管理人员获得有效申请和管理赠款所需的知识和技能。此外，他们将能够开展多学科研究活动，其成果将成为肯尼亚和其他国家卫生政策制定的一个组成部分。
