Abstract

Through its support of African Institute for Mathematical Sciences next Einstein initiative (AIMS-NEI), the Government of Canada and IDRC, and the United Kingdom Department for International Development (DFID) have demonstrated their leadership in investing in talented young Africans and building scientific and technical capacity across the continent through the development of a network of centres of excellence in mathematical sciences. This report provides details of the scope of the AIMS programme, along with evaluation of objectives, accomplishments and challenges. IDRC has provided flexibility in their support and oversight, allowing AIMS to take risks and demonstrate innovation.
