Partnerships are about more than working together. They're about creating lasting impact.

It was a pleasure to welcome Dr. Mwiti Makathimo from Novartis back to our institution for a second visit in just three months.

Our collaboration spans several clinical trials, helping advance research that contributes to better health outcomes. This visit also provided an opportunity for Dr. Mwiti to meet with our interns (Maya Masozera and Mireille Mutoni), encouraging and inspiring the next generation of healthcare professionals as they prepare to make a difference.

As part of the commemoration marking 32 years since the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, yesterday the team visited the Ntarama Genocide Memorial to pay tribute to the lives lost and reflect on the enduring values of remembrance, unity, and resilience.

Our Kwibuka32 activity was marked by a historical reflection session and a visit to the Memorial Site, providing an opportunity to honor the victims and deepen our understanding of this painful chapter in our nation's history.

The visit served as a powerful reminder of the collective responsibility we share in preserving national unity, promoting reconciliation, and rejecting genocide ideology in all its forms.

As we remember the past, we also renew our commitment to fostering a peaceful, inclusive, and resilient society for present and future generations.

Last week, our team, led by our Executive Director Marie Michele UMULISA, conducted a 5-day strategic working visit in Nairobi, engaging with key actors across the clinical research ecosystem.

During that week, one thing became clear: the future of clinical research in Africa will be built through stronger and more intentional partnerships.

We were pleased to reconnect with our existing partners:
💠 IQVIA: Discussions focused not only on expanding our collaboration but also reaffirmed the importance of continued alignment as we work together to address evolving global health challenges through research.
💠 Novartis: Conversations centered on our ongoing collaboration in malaria-oriented studies while also highlighting opportunities to expand collaboration into other projects of mutual interest.
💠 Clinical Research Health Network (CREA-N): A visit to their site in Machakos reiterated our joint commitment to “peer-to-peer” collaboration as one of the most effective drivers of sustainable capacity building. We also exchanged on opportunities for multi-site studies and discussed harmonization of practices and knowledge-sharing across the consortium.

We also initiated promising conversations with:

🔸 Aga Khan University Clinical Research Unit: We identified strong alignment on clinical research capacity building, training, mentorship, and potential future research collaboration.
🔸 Science for Africa Foundation: Our exchanges focused on advancing Africa-led research and strengthening the clinical research ecosystem.

These engagements highlighted a shared commitment to:
🔹 Advancing Africa-led research efforts
🔹 Strengthening regional collaboration
🔹 Centering communities in research design and implementation

We now look forward to translating these discussions into concrete collaborations that advance impactful research across the region.
