RUFORUM Postgraduate Support Webinar Series June – September 2026

RUFORUM is pleased to announce the Postgraduate Webinar Series, a structured online learning and orientation platform designed to strengthen postgraduate training and support across the RUFORUM Network. The series responds to the need for practical, timely, and widely applicable support for postgraduate students as they navigate research, supervision, professional development, and preparation for future contributions to their universities and communities. Specifically, the initiative targets the Master’s and PhD students by strengthening their capacities in safeguarding, research support, digital skills, and agribusiness development. Each session will be delivered online for two hours and facilitated by subject-matter experts. Universities, supervisors, and programme teams are encouraged to share this announcement widely with eligible postgraduate students and support their participation where possible.
