Millennium Science Initiative

The project development objective (PDO) of the Millennium Science Initiative Project is for Ugandan universities and research institutes to produce more and better qualified science and engineering graduates, and higher quality and more relevant research, and for firms to utilize these outputs to improve productivity for the sake of enhancing Science and Technology-led (S&T) growth. The closing date for the Project will be extended by 6 months from December 31, 2012 to June 30, 2013. The purpose of this six month extension request is to: (i) finalize the remaining procurement for the highly sophisticated research equipment using international competitive bidding and consumables for the research grantees and; (ii) give researchers and PhD students the opportunity to complete their research activities financed by the round three research grants. The restructuring paper also includes revisions and explanations to ensure uniformity between the PDO indicators being tracked in the Implementation Status Result (ISR) reports and the performance indicators in the Financing Agreement and to better align them with the PDO.
