A project to establish an early warning centre for infectious diseases in southern Africa has been provisionally selected for funding by the Japan International Cooperation Agency.
If approved, the project will get Yen 36 million (US$360,000) each year for five years from Japan’s Science and Technology Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS) programme.
Environmental scientist Noboru Minakawa from the Institute of Tropical Medicine at Nagasaki University, Japan, will lead the project. The principal African institution will be the Applied Centre for Climate and Earth Systems Science (ACCESS) in South Africa.
