CARRD is an independent think tank focussing on governance and development of the African region.

Aims

CARRD aims to develop a diverse, cross-disciplinary network of community of thinkers and connects their ideas with a wider audience of concerned citizens, policy makers, and the media. Areas: Capacity Building, Sustainable Development, Regeneration and Health in Sub-Saharan Africa

Strategy

We use an inclusive style of research that draws on the expertise and insights of academics, practitioners and members of the public. We provide a platform for different stakeholders to come together to address shared concerns as well as seek out new ways of addressing shared concerns.

Our research areas cut across traditional boundaries, addressing problems from a different perspective in order to generate innovative policy ideas in a way that promotes participatory governance and sustainable development that improve the quality of life of Africans.
