Leaders in Innovation Fellowships Programme v3, 4, 5, 6 2016-20 The Leaders in Innovation Fellowships programme builds technology entrepreneurship capacity of select partner country researchers who are developing a business proposition for their innovation which must meet a development challenge. Selected researchers benefit from focussed short term training and long term support through access to expert mentors and international networks. The primary objective of the Leaders in Innovation Fellowships (LIF) programme is to build the capacity of researchers for entrepreneurship and commercialisation of their research. The programme is aimed primarily at researchers within the partner country who are in the process of developing a business proposition for their innovation. All business ideas are assessed based upon their potential for social and economic development impact. A select cohort of researchers from that country will benefit from focussed support including a focussed period of training in the UK in aspects of commercialisation and technology entrepreneurship and access to expert mentors from the UK. In the short term they will develop a commercialisation plan for their innovation. In the long term they will benefit from on-going support at their home institution, and access to an international network of peer innovators and mentors, in taking their commercialisation plan forward. The programme has the following primary aims: (i) To build the capacity for innovation and technology entrepreneurship in the partner country, to support its long-term social welfare and economic development;
(ii) To establish international networks of innovators and technology entrepreneurs centred around The Academy’s Enterprise Hub.
Newton Research Collaboration Programme (NRCP): Call 1 2015 Newton Research Collaboration Programme facilitates exchanges between UK researchers and counterparts in Partner Countries. Exchanges form part of a collaborative engineering research project, incorporating visits and dissemination activities. The exchange constitutes an internationally excellent collaboration which benefits social welfare and economic development, and enhances research skills in the partner country. The Newton Research Collaboration Programme aims to develop science and innovation partnerships between UK and developing countries to promote their economic development and social welfare. Awards funded through the scheme facilitate international exchanges lasting three months to a year between researchers in the UK and their counterparts in selected Newton Fund Partner Countries. Exchanges can be either one- or two-way in direction, and should form part of a collaborative research project, incorporating visits and dissemination activities. The overarching research project should constitute an internationally excellent research collaboration in any area of engineering. Applicants must demonstrate how the ultimate impacts of the research will benefit one or more developing countries in terms of social welfare improvements and economic development, as well as how the project will enhance research skills capacity in the Newton Fund partner country in identified areas of need.

Leaders in Innovation Fellowships Programme v3 2016-17 The Leaders in Innovation Fellowships programme builds technology entrepreneurship capacity of select partner country researchers who are developing a business proposition for their innovation which must meet a development challenge. Selected researchers benefit from focussed short term training and long term support through access to expert mentors and international networks. As a critical interface in the delivery of new technologies and innovations, a strong partnership between academia and industry is vital for economic development and growth. In an era of rapid technological advancement, it is also essential that engineering education keeps up with the ever changing demands of industry, to ensure that graduates have the skills and knowledge required by future employers. More broadly, it is clear that engineers, through advances in technology, have a major role to play in addressing key global challenges, such as sustainability, clean energy, food security, and climate change resilience. The Industry Academia Partnership Programme aims to build strong and structured partnerships between higher education institutions and locally based industry, focussed around bilateral academic and industry exchanges. These placements improve university curricula and enhance knowledge transfer into industry to enhance prospects for long term economic development within the partner country. This is done by: (i) Promote the sharing of knowledge and creation of mutually beneficial partnerships between HEIs and industry, to inform current and future engineering research and facilitate its impact in practice;
(ii) Enhance teaching curricula and methods within HEIs to promote practice led, industrially relevant learning, to improve engineering skills among graduates and ensure they meet the needs of local industry;
(iii) Enhance teaching curricula and methods to promote innovation focused learning and technology entrepreneurship, to promote innovation capacity among engineering graduates;
(iv) Promote, more broadly, international sharing of knowledge and best practice in engineering education and support for innovation between HEIs in the UK and Newton partner countries.

Vanuatu-Compact In March of 2006, the Millennium Challenge Corporation signed a five-year, $65.69 million compact with the Government of Vanuatu to reduce poverty and stimulate economic growth by targeting the country's poor transportation infrastructure. The compact will benefit poor, rural agricultural producers and providers of tourist related goods and services by reducing transportation costs and improving the reliability of access to transportation services. The compact in Vanuatu entered into force (EIF) in April 2006, formally initiating the five-year timeline for project implementation. The compact closed out in April 2011. The compact was formally restructured in early 2008 due to several circumstances including escalating global construction costs and currency fluctuations. The construction and sealing of two national roads, the Efate Ring road and the Santo East Coast road, is the focus of the restructured Compact. In June of 2009, the Government of Vanuatu signed a funding agreement with the New Zealand Agency for International Development (NZAID) to provide additional funding support to the project.
