INSA Lyon and the University of Addis Ababa in Ethiopia

As part of the project to strengthen the capabilities of the University of Addis-Ababa, INSA Lyon has been designated by the French Embassy to ensure the project management of the "new information and communication technologies" sector.

The project focuses on three areas: doctoral programme/school, research programme, technological transfer centre. A meeting between all the partners took place on 4 and 5 October 2010 in Addis-Ababa for the launch of the "Center for IT Research and Innovation" (CITRI). INSA Lyon is coordinating the action of the network of French and foreign universities (United States, Germany, Italy, notably) that are partners in the project and is receiving numerous doctoral students and researchers who will strengthen this centre of excellence.
