Research Phase

Research Phase: 

The gist of the Partnership for Building Resilient Ecosystems and Livelihoods to Climate Change and Disaster Risks (BREAD) project is to build capacity at Makerere University and Gulu Universities in the fields of resilience, disaster risk management under variable and changing climate. The project will train 3 PhD (2 local and 1 sandwich) with 1 student from other PPU, 2 postdocs and 2 master’s students at Makerere. The project will also develop one PhD curriculum, review one PhD programme and one Masters programme.  In addition, the project will establish a center of excellence in disaster risk management to support science, policy and practical actions.
