Development through Radio Astronomy Global Network We propose to build partnerships between the three separate projects in development through radio astronomy that we have already established via the Newton Fund in Africa, Latin America and South East Asia. This collaboration will form a global network of expertise in the mobilization of radio astronomy for economic development. The network will establish and build 'south-south' connections that will help the sharing of experiences and lessons learned in how to translate the high tech skills of radio astronomy into local job creation and entrepreneurship.  The activities in this project centre on four international workshops that each focus on a key aspect of economic development through radio astronomy research. These include the conversion of old telecommunications dishes into radio telescopes, the formation of regional collaborations using networks of radio telescopes working together, utilizing the big data aspects of radio astronomy for translation into other areas of industry and commerce, and the transfer of the high tech skills in radio astronomy into the related areas of space science, geodesy, satellite communications and telecommunications and entrepreneurship. We will encourage other low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) in the three continental regions to join the established activities and build strong regional collaborations around this theme. This will help cement the UK's position as a world leader in radio astronomy and its applications.

NUTRAIN: Translating nuclear applications from University of York to University of Western Cape and University of Zululand Experimental nuclear physics leads to many applications of radiation detection for societal needs from medical imaging to homeland security and nuclear decommissioning. The University of York nuclear physics group is heavily involved in such applications and has a broad portfolio of work which has been applied across many different sectors. Their detector development laboratories are very active with students from across the world receiving high-level training. This project intends to translate this activity to two historically disadvantaged universities in South Africa: the University of the Western Cape (UWC) and University of Zululand (UZ). Students from these universities, which included students from other countries such as Botswana, Cameroon, Ghana and Nigeria, will visit York to receive training in relevant technology. In parallel, this grant will fund the setting up of laboratories in their institutions where this work can be continued. The York team will support and mentor the students and early career scientists. Three different detector applications will be investigated relevant to medical imaging, mineral exploration as well as experimental nuclear physics. The SA researchers will work with their local industrial and laboratory contacts to put these detector prototypes into use. The project will help to upskill the young people involved and foster a culture of entrepreneurship and industrial engagement. This is intended to have an important legacy beyond the initial one-year term of this project.

ASTEC: Astronomical System Training, Engineering and Collaboration The Large Millimetre Telescope (LMT) is Mexico's largest ever investment in a science facility. The project proposed here will help train Mexican astronomers in the high frequency radio techniques necessary to build receivers for use on LMT. This training will be carried out by converting an existing "SHIRM" receiver previously used for Earth observations for use on the LMT for astronomical observations. The skills transferred to the Mexican community during this project have wide ranging application to other research and commercial applications which have direct impact on development. Examples include atmospheric and ground-use monitoring, and active sensors in a range of applications including on cars, an area in which Mexico has a large manufacturing sector.
