help build the next generation of scientists. Each project is unique, 
developed with the country's specific needs in mind.


*We would like to invite you to partner with us to organise a project 
either in your home country or collaborate on a project elsewhere.*

mathematics when travel restrictions are lifted.

·Projects to support lecturers and physics and mathematics departments 
in developing countries

·Lecturers looking for support to teach a course in physics or mathematics.

·Lecturers looking for support to develop their BSc or MSc curricula in
