We endeavor to establish partnerships with leading institutions across the globe to advance excellence in research, innovation, industrial linkages and capacity building. Ongoing collaborations are as shown below:
Kenya-AIST is modelled after the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). Through a bilateral MOU, the two institutions will engage in academic and research development, including faculty and student exchanges, joint research initiatives, and capacity building programmes. The partnership is guided by principles of equality, reciprocity, and mutual benefit.
IVI is an international organization established in 1997 in Seoul, South Korea, under the initiative of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), with a focus on vaccine research and global health. Kenya-AIST, KAIST and IVI signed an MoU in June 2024 during the Korea-Africa Summit. Currently, the trio are exploring ways of promoting bio-vaccine research and capacity building.
Kenya-AIST and Wuhan Textile University have an MOU aimed at strengthening academic and educational cooperation.
We have partnered with Earthbanc AB through an MOU focusing on education, research, and innovation in environmental engineering, land restoration, climate change, and carbon programmes. The collaboration supports training, research, and the development of carbon and climate projects, including feasibility studies, baseline assessments, and the formulation of Measurement, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) systems.
Kenya-AIST officially formalized a Memorandum of Understanding with the Green Growth Global Institute (GGGI) on 14th August 2026. The partnership aims to advance green growth and sustainable development through research, innovation, knowledge exchange and capacity building. This collaboration leverages the expertise, resources and networks of both institutions to advance innovative, technology-driven solutions to environmental and development challenges and support Kenya’s transition to a greener, more resilient and sustainable economy.
